Wouldn't give you the pleasure. If it weren't for good men, of ALL colors, I couldn't frustrate you so much. Sleep well dojet, have to fly to AMS 2morrow.

Godspeed!

A-320
You fly an A-320 to AMS ? In a past life I used to fly an A-320 inside Europe as well, but what airline do you fly for ?

I fly the 757, 767 and a C-17. And you'll have the best job in the world...for the rest of your career, but you won't enjoy it to the max because I, and others like me will always be here, because we earned it. A shame 4 U.

I think emenim is very talented. I cited Vanilla Ice

No I'm 75/76 now. But I enjoyed the A-320. Stirrups, tray tables and fart suckers.

Your right, good folks that earned it and some that didn't, it's mandated. And you need another comma after the me in "I, and others like me"
Rutgers and all

Default Advantages

Some receive a preference due to their race. Others because their daddy is a check airman for the company. The main difference is that we call one "ethnic diversity" and is easy to recognise. The other is harder to pick out and is much more prevalent. To the average guy on the street both are hugely unfair and unfortunately how most are hired at the majors.

The hard truth is that if you don't have nepotism, race or a military network on your side then you don't have much of a chance at all.
