Interesting how we had a I-crew pop up message in December that was a slap in the face "in lieu of crewmeals on Christmas and New Years day we would like to enter you in a drawing....", even my spouse who rarely takes sides in things thought that was a huge insult. They should have just not mentioned anything at all rather than make point of it. Now that management is all excited about profits they have a party day on February 14th.

From my perspective I didn't feel like a valued employee trying to scrounge for food on Christmas day while on a trip with so many things closed. One "meal" that day was out of my suitcase and vending machine.

I can buy A LOT of Chik-Fil-A sandwiches with a SWA payraise....

HA HA, that's funny.

As to Katy Perry. Anyone who works out a gym knows Katy Perry... "LIVIN' a TEEEEENAGE DREAM, THAT way you TURN me ON I can't SLEEP and don't ever look back DON'T EVER LOOK BACK."

Yeah, you can hear that threw your own headphones. That and Nelly Furtado or whatever her name is.

But Katy Perry was on Sesame Street even though it was never shown. It was the episode
brought to you by the letter T... and A!

There's an App for that - Flavortown. Shows where Triple-D places are in relation to your location. Very nice to have.

I am not on FPL, have never gotten any FPL, I am not currently volunteering or working as any kind of ALPA committee member, but my question is this:
-When people get upset about FPL, are they really, deep down inside, upset because they are not the ones getting paid for "doing nothing but sit in a comfy office and work Tuesday through Thursday"

Thread consolidation post ... why are we worried about Rep's or Committee members' Flight Pay Loss when we got Executive Administrators to skewer? Now where's that Montgomery Inn sauce?

1234, ain't nobody gettin' on no committee without first demonstrating their allegiance to the status quo.

I doubt anyone would have any problem with Flight Pass Loss, if they perceived they were getting value for their money. I suggest the problem is not the FPL, but the results.

And my question is what has prevented them from reporting at least their own? The posting of all flight pay loss information will spark debate only because it will be a random number. Unless there is basis ascribed to the figures, it will mean very little. And no, I don't hold an ALPA office. I can't afford the pay cut.

OH THAT'S AWESOME. I'm going to get so fat that I'm going to end up going to the gym so often that I'll finally learn all of Katy Perry's songs!
