yep, sitting right across from the group with my crew. At the Raddison in MKE. Feel free to stop by! Seriously though, maybe instead of bragging about his 99 seat airplane maybe this guy should mention that a senior manager at Home Depot makes more than his does flying his "99 seat airplanes" that haven't even been delievered yet btw.....

Come on man put it together. The pilot is here on a layover and the people at the bar are passengers on midwest who are also staying here. Who knows why they are here, could be on business, pleasure, or just waiting for a flight tomorrow morning.

Well if what you are saying is true, the guy needs his nose broken.

If that's even close to true:

1) Be a man, walk up to him and tell him how much of a d-bag he is.

2) Get a name.

3) PM me that name and I will forward it to our Professional Standards Committee. It will be resolved.

----------------------------

Just checked our hotel tracking website. We don't list the Raddison as one of hotels that we use.

I call shenanigans.

I have gone to other hotels for a bite to eat other than the ones we stay at. Don't call the guy a liar until you know the facts.

Your choice Francis.

I need another beer..
No thanks Trojan. I can make A LOT more not flying versus $37/hr. I personally liked my job at Midwest, shamed to see it go. The money is not really the discussion here for me, but rather moving back to a regional management mentality that treats you like a 3rd grader versus a professional.

Hence, the reason I gave him a way to get information to me to follow up on. Again, if it was me, I would have said something to the guy then and there.

But, you'll tell your buds that story tomorrow as fact anyway, so it's probably a wasted effort.
