Because there's no trip mix.... This bid packet has less locals and stand ups so it's pretty much 3/4 days which is fine if you'd like that, but to me I'm starting to miss having variety.

Is this out of the sim class? The class in ground school lost one this week because she separated her shoulder... Other then that, everyone's hanging tough.

The economy seats in the 175 are horrible "in terms of passenger comfort"! They have zero padding and no lumbar support.

Have you tried riding in a Cathay 744 across the western pond? Talk about uncomfortable seats...

I find the 175 to be superior in terms of comfort to narrowbody mainline aircraft. The huge windows give it a bright, airy, open feeling, and Delta's economy seating in the 175 feels more roomy than a SWA 737. And you know that seating is the airline's choice, not the airplane manufacturer's...

Take it from a guy who is at this very second crammed into one of those seats on my airline, it doesn't freakin' take much work to be more roomy.

I've flown all over the planet on many different carriers and all I'm saying is the economy seats are horrible in the 175. Might be okay for a 30 minute flight, anything beyond that and the seats are completely inadequate(not talking about the amount of space, but the complete lack of any lumbar support or cushioning for the posterior).

Week ending 10/23 two of the top 10 in the TRG group no longer show up on the seniority list. An additional guy that week that is 40 in seniority. Out of the top 10 pilots one guy has the same first initial as his last and if he had a third initial that was the same, he may be accused of being in some type of group that wears white hoods. The other guy has the same initials as a religious figure that has a famous father and the last guy has the same initials as the shipping company DHL minus the L.

Week ending 10/30 we lost one more that was around 28 seniority and has the same initials as Lawrence Taylor.

Week ending 11/6 we have 6 more pilots that were on the list the previous week that are no longer on there. Domicile seniority is in the 60 for the two that share initials with Tom Brady and Chris Rock. Two more have their seniority in the 80's and share initials with John Rockifeller and Aaron Hernandez. The last two have seniority numbers in the 120's and initials similar to Don Undertaker and Kim Anderson.

These could be people that no-showed and just got taken off the list, but everyone I list as missing was on our seniority list at some point. I'm not sure what is okay to post or not, so please forgive the riddles and pseudonyms.
