They've typically had a presence in SJC and on the west coast.

I see Atlanta's best sushi on my ad. Yum.


We've got this new place that popped up near my house that has in big bright letters "Steak, Sushi, Tapas."

I drive my wife nuts calling it "steak, sushi, and tatas."

That's funny, but I hate Tapas...50 bucks for snacks and I have to stop by McD's on the way home because I'm still hungry. Now Tata's?... I'm good with those

Doesn't change the fact that pre-merger I was at 40% and post I'm at 90%. You cherry pick about as well as Carl. Keep it in perspective dude. I was responding to a post about all of the FDAL guys "flocking" north because the bases are better.:rolleyes:

Good luck tomorrow night. :D

You too New. Should be a good game. Typical Bears-Packers probably. Anybody but Minnesota, at this point. Although, AP is a frikkin beast!

Buzz,

We are all Delta now - and consequently any guy who comes in above from North or South is equally a jerk! :)

Disclaimer: This is obviously a joke. Note the smiley face. Guys are free to bid whatever their seniority can hold, especially in ATL, NYC, DTW, MSP, and SEA.:D

I was worked every other day that's not a short call. I've been deadheading to other bases to do other bases flying a lot which I hardly ever did before. I've also been sitting short call on my last day on which never seemed to happen. I'm hoping I just had a bad month, and this is not the norm. I'm still not going to break guarantee either.

been the same for me. I got lucky enough to get 3 sc's in a row then tagged with a 3 day last week. I'm sitting at 5 sc's this month and have 2 days left after this 3 day i'm on and i'm sure they'll tag me on the last day. Its been awesome lately....:rolleyes:

Guys I think this is due to a lot of junior guys in our category being on vacation this month.

I certainly never said anything like the north bases being better. I was simply reminiscing about those good old days during the SLI where fDAL pilots were saying things like "hardly anybody will want to be at those ******** NWA bases, and all those NWA guys will be bidding into our bases." It's just fun to see that so many fDAL guys are seeing something in those north bases.

Although I am surprised to see so many guys flocking to that "northie" base...JFK. ;)

OK...but maybe a 2001 hire probably shouldn't have been able to hold WB NYC or cherry LAX.

We had the same with new hire F/os holding 757 seats..a fluke. Eventually the water sought it's own level.

Oh...and feel free to come to MSP. a fDAL 2001 hire should be able to hold CA on the DC-9.
