Didn't take long for all the disputed pairings to disappear

If you are serious about doing somthing about it you can adopt the "ANC" technique.........no landing s for a disputed pairing flying F/O, and if the F/o happens to be on probation........a negative flt eval............if it's a Capt, a public queery as to WTFDYTYDing at the most public layover venue.

Again, I've worn something around my neck for most of my life, dog tags, line badges, ...short man's complex...now company ID. It just didn't seem like such a big deal. Even if I didn't like it, if it was asked for by the guys who are negotiating, then I'll wear it. My sense of individuality is not expressed at work (that's just a job....family is much more important). I just don't expend too much energy trying to be different than the whole group of folks I've thrown my lot in with. That's a whole lot different then spending a whole lot of time and talent to conform....that would be a lemming.
I'm done...are you?....I'm going to get my nipple pierced now.

You said prioritize when I think after reading your last post you meant priorities. I am not trying to be the language police...just explaining to you how your post could be read with a different context given the typo.

Sounds like someone woke up on the wrong side of the rock today.

No rock although the guy next to me in 1st class was snoring.
Yeah that 6.5 hours of daylight I'm blocking this week for my 18 hours of pay is going to kill me.

Well for some of us...I don't go to work looking for approval, validation, or ego boost. So when you see me in AOC not wearing a lanyard...I could care less...when the Union hands out plastic pocket protector, neat-o looking wrist bands, or ALPA jock-straps...you can have mine too!

Ready, fire, aim
FDXLAG,
I quoted you before, and I am quoting you again. You don't read so good.
You said:
Now get that dictionary out that you like to use, and see that prioritize is a verb. A literal read of your post meant that you were asking me to "Prioritize for you the following list: God, Family, Country, Job"...to which I responded....I have my priorities (noun) and they're good enough for me. This statement you again took umbrage with. So, therefore, I responded that I may have taken you out of context and saw that you might have made a typo and written prioritize instead of priorities.
as in "Priorities for me: God, Family, Country, Job"....as in, I have come to the conclusion that the following are my priorities in order: God, Family, Country, Job.
Once you get something in your head, you obviously have such a strength of an idea that you can't see the forest thru the trees......which is why, I think, you spend time arguing with folks on here......
I give....you may have the last word.....no matter what you say...I will pierce my left nipple, keep my mouth shut and press on.

They keep pulling me back.
Would you have been happier with a semicolon. The comma seperated the Prioritize from the for me. Read it again and this time let your lips move.
