I think he's going to send you some MEM pilots instead of new hires! :eek:

Some years ago I heard a story that one of our NYC 'commuters' bought a big power boat and kept it at a slip somewhere in the NYC area, used that for his crash pad.

When I was a new hire, that was my Plan A, get a big sailboat and fly out of MIA in the winter, BOS in the summer, live on the boat year round, sailing it up and down the coast with the seasons. "follow the sun"

Oh yeah, and I was Never going to get married, can you imagine a wife ever going for that lifestyle?

26 years later, I've got a wife and 4 kids who are bleeding my checking account dry every month, and the only boat I can afford is a 16' catamaran, but at least it's parked on a lake in my back yard.

In about 15 minutes I'll be out sailing...that's why I commute to ATL instead of living in PTC. Yeah, commuting sucks, but I'll be on the water in 15 minutes. There are a bunch of float planes out there right now doing splash and go's. Maybe I can score a ride.

So much for plan A.

I'm trying to Opt In in the Crew Notification system. However, I am unable to select the provider and time zone for my cell phone. I can select the list, but when I select the individual carrier or time zone, it doesn't populate. Thus, the system will not let me use that number.

Anyone else have similar problems? I used both IE and Firefox and both browsers did the same thing.

Can someone tell me where to find the specifics for each MED option, i.e. what each pays, deductibles, etc. I can find the costs but not the individual plans. Thanks

Nevermind! Found it

firstmob 11-13-2011 08:34 AM
