That’s, like, two words. I’m partial to the catering labeled “BM”.

Paychecks that always clear.

Other than that, it is pretty much a job and it does what it is supposed to do.

Did you happen to work at a regional airline before FedEx?

We’re the only US airline with foreign basing. Pretty cool opportunity to live in Europe or HKG if your into that kindof thing.

I think Anthrax needs to take advantage of our awesome contractual vacation benefits to recharge.

I think Anthrax deserves to be paid for such writing.

Yea, I recall a F/O telling me a story of flying RFO from HKG to ANC. After a nap he headed over to the F Street for a beer. When he walked in he saw his Captain sitting at the bar. He sat on the bar stool next to his Captain and ordered a beer. They exchanged a few words and then had a question. The Captain turned, looked him in the face and asked “Who do you fly for?”.
