Every single one of us who come face-to-face with customers need to put on our smiles and make our customers feel like they're the most important people in the world.

That's how we win.
Pretty hard to do when management gives control of our brand to darn near anyone who wants it, and trusts its own pilots last to control it.

What does "added slots" mean?

The last two A/E's had displacements in both seats. Net loss of 30 Capt. and...was it 25 F/O's? Lost were ATL-Lagos, Tel Aviv and soon to be Shanghi. But picked up MSP-NRT and a couple other destinations out of NRT. (HKG, SIN, TPE)

No wishing of I'll will Nu. Just the talk on the street of what may happen in a filing. Much prefer for the to be in the command seat of their merger versus Doug Parker......

Time to get more beer and get ready for Noles-Gators.

And how about some Under boob to take the edge off?

Anyone think there might be a LSU-Bama do-over for the BCS game?
Yeah, your War Damned Eagles don't look so hot.. but at least they don't SUCK... For the orange, the streak is over, and beer is not enough.

Go Noles!

I'm not computer literate enough to post pics..

Lastly.. yes.. I think there will be a Tigers/Tide rematch..
