Yup, this. I think "Virtual Airlines" are dorky beyond description, but you know what?, He ain't bothering anyone. Calling him a "tool" because his choice of time-waster doesn't meet with your approval is ... well ... toolish.

Tools are people that judge other people on what they like to do with their free time.

Making it even weirder, I'm pretty sure he was doing this for a "virtual airline", so he was simulating being at work, while he was actually being paid to sit and do nothing at work. Plenty of resources available for initial help. I programmed in 1000 hours of vacation time each year. Happiest airline experience I've ever had.:D |

You guys should try getting into the virtual airline world. It's a blast, you get the right PC and aircraft software then you said up your own personal parameters to get scheduled to fly.

Started my own Virtual Airline! It’s called “Fare Air.” Started ourt strong and then the economy went south. I forced my pilots to take concessions and itmgot ugly. They started leaving for my friends virtual airline: “Better Airlines.” I had no choice but to keep junior manning my pilots into off days. I canceled 400 flights/day and was a sinking ship. Then my friends virtual airline offered me a capacity purchase agreement and saved the day. I had to lower wages and grate employees poorly to make sure I stayed competitive. I am now “Fare Air” dba “Better Air Expresstion”

On the virtual APC in my VA, all the posts are informative and constructive.
Turns out the world that seems real to us is actually the Spock with a beard world. |
It’s ALL just one big simulation.
