Bouncers

Bouncing nuggets


As in, 3 bounces in the sim every 90 days. They're never going to get them in the airplane.

Lucky guy. I'm hoping my friend gets the email too.

So, first contact does not involve a phone call? Just an email from the application folks?

How 'bout, we just call them what they are. New Hires on the 777.

They are fellow FDX pilots, and ALPA members. Why don't we just welcome them as that.

Should they decide poorly and become non-members, then you can call them what they are, non-members.

I have many more colorful names for non-members, than just "non-members".

Well said! We probably ought to spend a little less time beating up our fellow pilots/ALPA members. I know that's a difficult concept to grasp.
