Not sure about champagne, but definitely when they are drinking tea

Dang, catering was very good but I have no discipline so not bidding MEM as an outsider probably saved my life. I really like chocolate cake… That would shift me from pear to tomato figure.

The chocolate cake changed when management took it away and then reintroduced it. The new chocolate cake is nothing like the original.

Different contract? Like shipping with purple vs. brown? Sorry if I am stepping on someone’s toes. Just the most obvious analogy.

I honestly hope you’re not serious. If it was a joke your sarcasm doesn’t come through well.

Do you ever step back and listen to yourself talk? Do you realize you sound like the worlds biggest crybaby? You literally figure out a way to complain about everything. You sound like a miserable human. You may want to think about retirement immediately to reduce your stress. I don’t think you would be happy anywhere with anything. Sad Troll

It wasn't a complaint. I don't eat either. But the new one is nothing like the old one. It's just fact. He was talking about how the chocolate cake was good when he flew for us. That was probably when it was the old one which is why I made the comparison.

Did you see that I was replying to him? He flew a while back when the cake was different which is why I made the comparison. The cake is night and day different than it was before. Still good, but I don't eat any of it. You get your choice now of whether you want a desert (three kinds available) which is a good thing since it isn't being wasted. But the famous chocolate cake which was provided with every meal regardless of how you ordered is long gone.

You see they have watched FedEx get aircraft orders after aircraft orders. They have seen bid after bid producing less than two year captains. They have seen our fleet grow while theres stays almost stagnant. I’m sure it chaffs they’re arss and creates resentment.
👆 This.

It’s all good PTB, thanks for letting me know. Chocolate cake was very good back in the day and much like many things whether here, there or anywhere. It was the little things. Granted, some things are better but we’ll see what the new-normal is after the viral debacle plays out. Wet leasing, belly freight, new contracts, growth, fleet sizing/upgrades, companies will only get more efficient at the cost of yours truly so at least most know this on these forums so everyone tries to make everything better hopefully. Didn’t mean for the benign cake statements to go full tilt just for a pile on. Ease up folks, I guess cake is emotional for some but just a middle tire for me.

*Biggest takeaway, famous cake gone, no MEM bid for me even living in TN. Thanks for clarification.
