Did he make you cook for him too? :)

Am I still a tool if I run on the treadmill with my bluetooth earpiece? :D I'm not "playing with my phone", I'm multitasking, while exercising! :eek:

GJ

P.S. If you knew the real me, you'd find it unbelievable that I can walk & chew gum at the same time. :D

The tool that hangs his sunglasses on the back of his uniform shirt collar. I looks stupid! put them in your pocket or kit bag.

Also, a bunch of pilots and rampers were watching the football playoffs in one of the "Samsung" rooms at DFW. Some fat a$$ is gabbing on her phone and won't shut up despite numerous comments and shooshing. Then a ramper turned the volume up all the way on the TV. She still won't shut the **** up and yaps for another 5 minutes before leaving. Seriously? What is wrong with people?

Call me a tool then, because in my house, WE sure were pregnant. WE couldn't sleep. WE ate at all hours of the night. WE craved ice-cream. WE felt sick about getting annoyed, or annoyed about getting sick together. WE had to stop to go to the bathroom every few minutes. WE struggled with names. WE got tired of advice. WE wanted to faint during delivery. WE gained severals pound coming back from the maternity. WE cared deeply about breast-feeding, although in slightly different ways...

I think WE are slowly crossing the line from identifying certified, Category A, full-blown tools, to self-identifying part-time tools with toolish pet-peeves.

Lets see...here is a summary of various tools or at least brief "tool-like" behavior for your reading enjoyment:

...I check in on the radio saying "Center, Delta 123 is with you climbing out of twenty-four point five for flight level two seven zero" and the captain tells me "there's no decimal points in the flight level structure."

...The guy who got all bent out of shape because someone wrote a tiny little notation on the checklist ("you aren't supposed to write on checklists!" was his complaint) but then insisted on climbing out at 500 fpm at .82M so as to get to the layover and beer drinking just a few minutes earlier


I will come back and edit this post as the memories return

I think you're right Sink r8, but before we get totally back on track, let me just take a moment and go off track and in the opposite direction and there is something pertinent to this thread:

So, I got outed as FTB.

The Captain I was flying with talked about this forum, actually it was before on our first leg before push. I said I read it, but... I don't post there.

Which as you can tell, I don't routinely post here. However, even if you rarely post you do have to be careful so I try to hide myself the every time I come to work. Which is about once a month.

But later I goofed and told a story identical to one I posted on this forum before and well, I was caught red handed and surrendered quickly. He then goes, well, on Wednesday I guess I need to look at the Tool of the Day thread and see if I'm on there. :D

So in honor of this Captain, I will indeed post about him even though I promised not to.

First, he got 3 out of the 4 walk-arounds including the first one which was his leg.

He then was going to buy my beer, except I ordered a coke because I don't drink. Which was always funny when guys would be like "you don't drink? Are you mormon?" As I am drinking a coke in front of them. Best one was when the guy asked "why are you on the ER?!??!?" (international 767) Too funny.

When he chose the bar stools, he even sat me beside the hot touchy drunk blonde. Which I didn't want to have any part of because I am a happily married, but, when she pats you on the back at least you know you were worth patting on the back and not some tool. Although, at 11pm at night her vision might have been severely blurred, I'll admit that.

Anyways, to a Captain you guys would all enjoy flying with:

Cause I'm in the right seat right now.

Yes unpopular to me. When the Gamecocks take the field to the sound of 2001 and I get goosebumps, it's "US".

Now those that did not go to a school and claim it as "we", then yes, tool.

Is that tool worthy? I've heard it equated to "with you"
