Just reading through some of the posts, I think it will be 2013 BEFORE I learn the DAL work rules!! :p

Don't feel bad. There isn't 1 Delta pilot out of 1000 who understands some of those scheduling formulas.

I have been getting that automated message for a IA all day. Funny thing is that I have reserve tomorrow, and they only want to pay premium for one day. As soon as it is past my window it goes to a guy senior to me as a GS! (the way it should be)

<----One guy who does not want to fly an IA so a senior guy cannot get a GS!

If there is an actual pilot who has a GS without conflict in, this is a clear violation of Section 23 N of the contract that deals with open time assignment. A GS without conflict should be awarded before any IA call has gone out. Scheduling better be very careful about doing this!!!

I know. Got a call before noon for a IA on a two day. I checked the sked and it was assigned to a reserve pilot my senior as a GS. Not sure if it was with or without conflict. Been to busy to check.

We definately need to constantly police scheduling on these kinds of things. They need to be kept honest especially this time of the year.

Them having to pay another pilot for the trip because of this will start keeping them honest!!!

Not true! I can say no thank you to the very hot Swedish girl who tempts me to break my marriage vows. I can ask for a large beer. I can cheer for the Swedish football/hockey/curling teams!

I know first hand how hot the girls in Stockholm are. I spent two weeks in Sweden after college. I could regale you with stories that can't be repeated on a public forum...:D:cool:

Besides, Viking speaks Norwegian. The hot Swedish girls will just laugh at him and call him a hick!

Satchip, its an anonymous public forum. Go ahead.

I love this point in CFB, its where teams wear out and things get out of controlm and that this point comes on halloween is even more fun.

Wonder if Tsquare is on the forum right now... probably not. UT is playing.
Check? nope. still celebrating.
Super? nope. UT is playing.
USC fans? Upset alert for no other reason that its Halloween.

I forgot who the FL fans are but i think they had already marked this as a win before the game began.

FWIW, the ugliest uniform I saw today was that UGA black crap, until I tuned into the UT game... what gives tsquare? And how would you like to be a QB for either UT or OSU; "so are we the orange or are we the white?"

UT = Tennessee or Texas

Oh, and uh... something Delta... Delta is cool.

how can you check to see if someone has a gs or ws in on a particular day?

Yeah i've been busy with the kiddos trick or treating and watching the Game. Chalk another win up for my Horns!! Smooth sailing to the National Championship Game now (knock on wood now) ;)

I saw USC lost pretty bad, maybe the sports reporters will get off the USC bandwagon now. I'm surprised that IOWA won today after dropping down by 25 points. All in all it was anoher good College Gameday!!!
