Cdr. Camparelli: [Reprimanding the men after a barfight] Now what's this crap about you attempting to feed a merchant seaman to some alligators?
Lt. Jake Grafton: They were crocodiles, sir.
Cdr. Camparelli: I don't give a damn! Now go on.
Lt. Jake Grafton: Well, I attempted to throw the aforementioned puke to the crocodiles, sir, when his belt caught on the railing and I, failed. An altercation then ensued, sir!
Cdr. Camparelli: Seven hundred bucks damage, thirty men in the brig and... an alligator injured. And you got away?
Lt. Jake Grafton: Using escape and evasion techniques, sir, I was able to avoid being captured. And sir? We didn't hurt that crocodile. He was fine when we left.

Cdr. Camparelli: [Grafton has just been shot down while trying to rescue Camparelli] You think this changes anything, you hoodlum? You disobeyed another order! I grounded you!

Lt. Jake Grafton: Hey, I AM on the ground!

So, looking at the 2014 'rules of the road', I noticed that 'Enhancing pilots roles in providing excellent customer service during IROPS' is a goal.

How about "Making Sure We Have Enough Rampers To Load Baggage In JFK"?

I'm told that 75 rampers sicked out yesterday, leading to many international cancellations due to crews timing out. $$$$$$$

How are those negotiations coming??

Yeah I think it was the Saudis who said about a year ago they need 90-ish/bbl long term average minimum from now on to throw at domestic pacification programs and comical stimulus scams to avoid massive civil unrest. Of course we all know we will rush in and nation build and borrow from them with interest to do it so maybe they're not too worried about it after all.

Time for the little Boomers to learn about SAMs and the Phantom Shi... I mean the Phantom "pooper"

Negotiwhats? 2 hour callback leash at all times. Said so right in the memo. Settled law.

I've only been flying Delta passengers around Delta hubs for about a decade, but something I've noticed is that every year when the first real snow hits, a good chunk of the new rampers walk off the job.

Why the eff haven't you been hired yet???
