Please explain how the new thing is worse.
I think he's saying that, under the old system he commutes to base during the first 2 hours of his short call, and can commute home 10 hours later. Under the new system, he must wait 12 hours after he commutes in to commute home.

On the flip side, he'll get 2 more hours notice to set up the commute, assuming the last-minute assignment to short call.

Misinterpreting what information? You were pumped about information that nobody but reps had. That's my only point, not any perceived misinterpretation on your part. He didn't give you all the information...just the info that would help you to manage the forum miscreants.



If you say so.

Carl,
What reason do you have to not believe what Clamp posted? He said what he said, but you don't believe him. You always demand proof from others when they post stuff you do not agree with and accuse them of posting opinion disguised as fact. Isn't your disbelief of Clamp's statement just your opinion?

Just wondering why you get a pass on what you demand of others.

That makes sense. I rarely called for early release since I was just around... is there anything in the new LOA that prevents early release?

I didn't say I don't believe him. I'm skeptical about his perception of what happened with his friend who was giving him unreleased information. But I believe that he believes it happened the way he says it did.

I've done that to people I agree with too. I ask for proof from anyone I suspect of pulling things out of their backsides.

Yes...if I disbelieved Clamp. See above.

So you want me to submit proof that I'm skeptical? OK: "I'm Skeptical."

Not much to debate. I see you still enjoy insulting other members and questioning their integrity though. Keeps things interesting I guess.

That is absolutely disgusting. I can't believe this was pushed without MEMRAT sneaking by with one vote. This was an opportunity to significantly increase long call and instead we only increased it an hour...and then gave that up?

Seriously?

And for what? To undo the split duty part that we apparently wanted?

Wow. We got played.

Sorry Carl... when you're wrong, you're wrong. My perception of the scope of the SDPs was wrong initially. That was my interpretation and mine alone.

I'll man up and say I was wrong. Can you?
