Irregardless is only correct if you have your finger in your nose while you say it.

But, it really should be a word. Sometimes it just 'fits' the intent too well........

I changed it so that the Punctuation Police don't beat a path to my door. Regarding the use of irregardless or regardless of using it, it's used as a double negative, by some of us with less schooling than you Marines obviously have. I promise to be more careful in the future.

If memory serves correct, the Tallahassee FO did spend some time in a sleep room.
He was on reserve and wound up hub turning, something he didn't expect/think the company could do....and after speaking with the DO and figuring out that the assignment was within contract limits, accepted the trip.

Welcome back TonyC.

Irregardless I'm sure the irony was lost to the majority. I'm sure the spelling police figured it out though.

The difference between commuting in and working a trip in, is that you actually have to be awake for the flight when you are working. I know a lot of legs are short, so getting in a real nap for a commuter is tough, but it is more than the guys up front will get.

Hopefully, they will orer a bunch of Chair B's, as voted on in the AOC, and not just a handful. They go almost totally flat. And fill up the cubicles in the locker room, too.
