Coffee is $1 in NY. Just sayin. Of course keep believing what you spew. FLL at JB is awful for the JR. They’re salivating at your Jr base and will decimate your QOL. It’s going to be a horrible day on the first month award. Also, get used to being paid on the 8th and 20th. That likely won’t change. Plan accordingly!

Once I was doing seat support for an intern. He says to the IP " It's going to be really hard for me to be an FO here". IP say's "Nah, you're doing fine". The 23 year old says "No, it's just that I've been a flight instructor so long I'm used to telling people what to do". Face palm.
The best part of the story is two years later he gets on line and grabs an AXM turn with me, he says on the initial climb out from FLL "Holey Crap! ,I forgot my passport!". When he was working on his logbook, I had dispatch/ops/whoever cared send a copy of his passport to the station manger in AXM and give it to me in front of his back. I rode him the whole day about this being a particular pet peeve of some Norwegian Director of Jerkdom. All turned out with zero fanfare at customs.
Was I a d!ck? Yeah. Did he deserve it? Yeah.

I've been in four Hotel vans in the last 12 years. I'm a homeboy. It will have to be one heck of a nuclear SLI to impact me one way or the other. Had to deice once 15 years ago. Not bragging, just old. You will all get old and take advantage of seniority and know things new guys don't. I used to consider 10 years being a senior guy, 15 years ago. You'll shake your head too when a guy with five years considers themselves senior.

Symbian! Would you please stop restraining yourself and correct this? Taking a baby aspirin to prevent this impending stroke you feel coming on while behaving only goes so far. I know, that you know, that you know, that I know the proper spelling is Holly Crap.
