I would try sending a text.

I doubt that, you guys are starting to sound like psa, a, base here, a base over there..

Get the pilots first to get the aircraft you're behind on accepting.

Seriously? How about you worry about your house and let us worry about ours?

I had the fortune of catching a ride on a PDT 145 yesterday.

I couldn't believe that you are doing manual weight and balance. Any word on when you will be getting ACARS?

Paper charts, manual weight and balance. That is a lot of work.

It will be nice when we move to electronic WB and iPad charts, but it's not a huge deal once you get used to the paper way.
