My theory is the emphasis on punctuation in the Flight Operations Manual can be accurately predicted on a linear graph based on distance from the General Offices.
To test this theory ... along Virginia Ave, you'll hear debates on whether that's a comma, or a semi-colon in paragraph four on page 392. In Anchorage the same discussion would go something like "Is that in the FOM? ... What's an FOM?"*
SLC is in the middle, which is probably a good place to be.
* picking on a non existent base far from Atlanta, intentionally. (wish it was still there)

It was the same at NWA before the merger.
You had guys who walked in off the prarie at 18 or 19, and were 727 captains in 4 years, and widebody captains in 8.
For those of us who got away from MSP, we often scratched our heads wondering if it was something in the water. It was some amusement, however, after the merger, to see those same people completely befuddled at the fact that the sun did not rise and set in the central time zone.

Management usually says more than ALPA does and it's kinda already out there.

There are three forms of quick long distance communication during contract negotiations:
(1) Telephone
(2) Telegraph
(3) Tell a Line Check Airman
