You: "I normally would never consider doing this, but I have determined that buying you one meal on the road is potentially beneficial to me. Please present me with documentation that verifies that you, as a reserve line holder, did not exceed 72 credit hours in the last bid period, or as a flying line holder did not credit more than the line value as awarded. Then dinner is on me."
FO:"Can we go to Outback?"
You:"I was thinking something more along the lines of Chipotle"
FO:"God bless your benevolent soul!"

chipotle might be a little rich but I'm not above a nice evening of chick filet or Taco Bell.

Equal pay day for A320 pilots!!!
A couple of weeks ago I was reading my complimentary USA Today and there was front page plus several articles about how women are underpaid by 22% or some. Umber close to that and that there was a national day to pay homage to that fact.
It I occurred to me that most ULCC and LCC A320 pilots in the US are also forced to work for even at a less than 22% discount and this should not sit well as fair to the public. Especially as many of these pilots are routinely asked to do even more with less corporate support than their legacy peers.
Maybe they need their own ribbons/day/USA today front page and series of articles to expose this inequity.
