I've averaged a greenie a month in 2014. They probably averaged $4k per. Yesterday I celebrated 30 yrs of marriage. (Yep, same woman.) And she's way cool with the green slips. You see, she knows green slips don't flow hot and heavy all the time. Putting away some grain in the good years, means you eat in the lean years.

A $4000 beer could be one leg ATL-CHA (20ish min flight), overnight, one leg back in the morning.

I miss greenslips. They were so fun. I also miss being bought off trips because you had a LCA on it. Those were fun too.

My wife keeps mumbling something about granite counter tops. I don't get that, we already have counter tops. If anything, we need more LEGOs.

Legos? Are those like Lincoln Logs?

This GS conversation reminds me of a buddy soon after the merger. He runs off on a GS and then explains to his wife what a GS is .Next time she answers the phone from CS with a GS offer she tells him " I'll pack your bag"...LOL...

Don't let the wife know how much GS's pay.....very dangerous.

I am sitting on 30 hours of rest today. There is a trip tonight I would like to do, and would be legal to do without the 30 hour rest(I would turn into a pumpkin 8hrs after return). I put in a Green Slip for it and I have been passed over... do they auto-pass you over if you are on 30hr rest?

Yes, I believe they do. Call and ask why they skipped you.

Anyone have any info on this? Say a pilot that lives in GA commuting to NYC. Would he be subject to NY and GA state income tax?

With all the NYC commuters out there I figure somebody has the answer. Thanks
NY can't take a cut if your living somewhere else. We fall under federal law that states if you are a transportation worker and do not do more then 50% of your work in one state then state tax obligations fall to your state of residence. I have flown 15 years out of NY and they have never made even a attempt to tax me.
