I've talked to Lynn **** before and was impressed. Unfortunately, I called her phone # at crew resources, and her backup phone, over 100 times today, and couldn't get through. Busy signal 95% of time, when it rang it just rang for 3-4 minutes and then the "unable to connect your call" message came on and it hung up.

I sent in my "Return from MLOA" package today after being gone since Nov 2001, pretty nervous... I'm supposed to call her # and confirm receipt by them, according to the MLOA handbook. LOL, I waited 10 years to send that letter in, now I can't wait until tomorrow!

Thanks for inputs previously from folks, I ended up requesting 73N B at SLC, seemed the best seniority and commute combo from Phoenix, should be around 57%. Now have to hope the next AE doesn't nerf it!

Speaking of this D-0, today in LGA I hear the ramp question 4 different airplanes about why they blocked out one minute late "was there some sort of problem". The last guy tells ramp that they haven't even been cleared to push yet (they were waiting for clearance from ground). Ramp comes back with the same question "was there some sort of problem, why did you push one minute late?". Pilot responds with we ARE NOT cleared to push yet and I shouldn't have turned on the beacon yet but was trying to help you guys out". "so what was the problem again?"

I don't think there is any automated way to place the days unless its a recent change. Lynn is quick and responsive. Make sure you give her your full name and employee number in the email.

Instead of calling her you can do it over ecrew or icrew by waiting until after Mar 2 (see the Vacation Tips on the Crew Resources and Scheduling page). Right now you are not given the option as to where to place the days bought, but after Mar 2 (I think that's the date) you can do it over the computer.

Not sure on the suit-up thing, but as per your friendly L&G mods, all underboob pics are greatly appreciated. :)

Last time I read the TOS I'm absolutely sure I saw an underboob exemption clause. And of course, sideboob is 100% socially acceptable anyway, so keep that in mind.

From the article:

One of the more blatant incidents happened when she was preparing passengers' meals during a flight.

"A man who had had too much to drink wandered into the galley and thought he was entitled to more than his drink, and I set him straight," Ganis recalled. She plans to include the experience in the ABC series.

Ahh, the good old days before 9/11 when a pilot could wander back to the galley and grab a snack...

Of course I musta looked at that pic for four minutes before I noticed there were other people in it.

Hubby's a tool... busy texting instead of getting his woman another beer.

The more I stare, the more I notice...

One perv has his nose right behind her caboose. Then I found another perv to the right. I think it's David Letterman.
