That's pretty darn good.

I love laughing at the commercials where they spouse comes out to a surprise Mercedes... leased by their spouse with $7K down for 60 months, $500 a month and 5,000 miles maximum per year and $35K residual on a car that will be worth $20K.

But I hate to admit it, when your car guy says get rid of this thing (Honda Odyssey), you find yourself at the dealership where you can get $5K-$10K off without asking. New is cheaper than used almost.

Actually, that parody reminded me of something you would come up with. The thought crossed my mind: "Is FTB writing for Leno now?" :eek:

Another instant FTB classic if anyone actually reads through it.

I was studying for MD-88 recurrent. At some point it'd be fun to put all the "decision trees" from management to flight ops to maintenance to DALPA together into one.

I assume RA wants a better than "industry standard" airline. If he's only willing to pay "industry standard" wages (whatever those are), why should he expect to get better than industry standard performance? Average pay = average airline. Nothing more.

Maybe he's thinking "industry standard" pilots wouldn't be running my planes into one another quite so often. :eek:

I thought that decision tree looked a little like the electrical system. If I squint, I can see where you changed "DC Transfer Bus" into "BOTH SAY YES".

Well you can tell the Mrs, that your co-worker think for a comedic genius. See how she takes that.

I bet you get one of these.

At least when we are at work 20 days out of the month to get 72 hours of credit we will get 9 hours in the hotel and be able to fly up to 10 hours each duty period. Didn't all this start as a project to reduce fatigue??

Politicians got involved so like everything else taxpayers ended up paying bureaucrats a lot of money to spend millions to formulate a big pile of dung.
