According to the "Brisk Walking Pace" clause, taxi from a RW 26R landing at IAH to the south side parking can take over 45 minutes. Figured that one out at the last job and that certainly has nothing to do with Spirit since we park in a totally different spot.

I believe Spirit was in mediation for 24 months last time around before the strike?

Judging by the kinds of people he puts at the head of departments republicans don't typically support I would say he would like to have Frank Lorenzo take the helm

Didn't he put Carl Icahn as a special adviser? He's pretty pro-labor, right?
