Has anyone that received the questionnaire on 4/14 set up an interview?

Just a quick question...
Obviously not a big deal or anything but is it mandatory that pilots use the company provided luggage? I'm guessing it is but I just thought I'd ask since I'm rather attached to my LW... We've been through a lot together haha

I had an attachment to my LW tank and miss it on occasion. For now my wife uses it which I admire for its battle scars and street cred. I suspect I'll go back to it after the integration is done and the bean counters do their thing about perks like luggage.

The VX provided luggage is also LW but not the metal "tank".. its a pretty good bag, light weight. The laptop bag is fantastic, you will want to use it. Once in a while you will see a scofflaw who brings their own bag but that's rare. Your bag will not be abused working in Fifi, but I don't know what your commute is like..

I hate our bags. You put one shoe too many and it tips over, you put the lap top bag on the j hook and it tips over, you take a leak hands off the bag and it tips over causing the knee jerk reaction of reaching back to get it thus exposing the draining weasel to the men's room and adding another reason not to wear flip flops in a public restroom.

I miss my Stealth Air but I like the company issue LW as well. Put the heavy stuff in the bottom of the bag, and adjust the J hook and the tips will be reduced, but this bag does tip over more than my last.

If your bag tipping over is the worst problem you have in life, you have a pretty darn good life.
