To those who flew with me, it was great to have you backing me up in the cockpit. But what that tells me now is you're probably still on furlough, so Im sorry for that as I have been there also..(2nd airline).
Good luck to all, Diver keep in touch..
Good luck! May fortune shine on all of us in 2011 and beyond! Don't know if I flew with you or not (because I don't know who you are) but if I did, it was probably a great time!

Happy New Year!

I just got my first SD in about five years...

So I go into the chief's office and TO'B asks "Why didn't you report for your trip on January 2nd?"

I told him "I thought Comair was finished in 2010."

So he tells me "That's no excuse, and before I give you two weeks without pay, do you mind telling me where in the world did you hear that?"

So I tell him "Trailblazer told us and Trailblazer is always right."

And he says "Trailblazer? Why didn't you just say so? We'll excuse this one, but don't believe anything else Trailblazer says. He's a Delta stooge and a complete tool." and then he gave me a ham certificate.


Just in case anyone else has been skipping their January trips too...

Very freaking nice Boomer.
Did the ham taste like Soap?.
I mean, where else would they get free, roasted pig's meat over there?

I have a personal question about this. How can you afford to go to first year pay 4 times? I was single when I started this. I'm married now and we have a 5 month old and until my wife finishes school to support me on first year pay, there is no way I can go back. I realize not everyone is in my same position, I was just wondering what the trick was.

When I left XE for NWA it was a little tough, but we lived within our means. We also did not have a child yet, plus my wife worked full time. But by 2nd year pay we could afford a child & she stopped working.

It can be a challenge for sure.
