i dont remember who made the comments about the ham cert. and i'm too lazy to look. next time i am in ops i will speak to becky and see if we can set something up where guys/gals can donate their ham certificate to you furloughed guys. i usually give mine to my folks to use cause i try to watch my diet, but it might help somebody out during the holidays a little. just a thought and i will run it by and see what they think.

I guess since this was the second time I've been mentioned in this thread, its time to quit lurking and start posting. I believe you were my first call of the morning, DappemAV8. Technically, I wasn't correct saying it was my FIRST day, but my first day actually using the Maestro program (don't need to tell you guys how much of a "blast" it is). Also, it was the first day of my return to scheduling from dispatch, where I had spent about a year. I used SBS for a year in scheduling, and an additional year in dispatch, prior to today, so Maestro is a bit of a learning experience for me.
