Default Funny Names on DTW CA awards

Looking at the DTW CA reserve and January awards I see some interesting names: Santa Claus, Han Solo, and Austin Powers. What's up with that?

Simple to do, go to FLICA and change your FLICA acct from your name, to any other name you wish.

Im sure we will have an email out very soon telling pilots (adults), that "Bob Fornaro" or "Ron Burgandy" is not appropriate.

(Why we cant have nice things.)

Back at WW-PSAB, some guy at the chow tent was jotting down the names of the pilots coming in for meals. Almost immediately everyone was wearing their favorite fake name tags and signing in as their favorite celebrity. For a week or two I was either Donald Duck or Ronald Reagan when I signed for my meals.

Then they replaced the idiot TCN with a captain and we had to show ID to get food. Bah Humbug. Tactical deception is always a good idea and it's great practice even when not really necessary.

It’s all for a good laugh. No harm no foul until someone takes it too far.

So when scheduling assigns a trip out of order we are supposed to say “Santa claus” was supposed to get the trip when we argue our case? This should be fun

I’m just going to assume that anybody who changes their name on Flica as a joke also has a vanity license plate and uses the expression “happy wife, happy life” frequently.

Meh our reserve scheduling language is such garbage anyways. Makes just as much sense to say “Santa clause is junior to me and legal for this trip why didn’t he get it?”
