And what's the takeaway in all of this? Never pick up a Vegas turn, even on Crib pay. New hires, I know it can be tempting, but learn from Pancho and I.

You start innocently picking up Vegas turns in the summer for crib pay, and next thing you know... you're drinking out of a paper bag and livin in a van down by the river!!!!

A real corker.
Tell me about a time you....
- Stall in the flight levels
- Turn on the wrong taxiway into the path of an oncoming heavy taking off in SFO
- Hit parked planes

Or even better. Tell me about a time you guys “voted” in and passed that 1% raise.

Yeah, real corkers

I just need to correct the record on the above. All of these happened on Vegas turns, including the TA vote

This is embarrassing. You should know the MSA has no bearing on a published portion of the IAP.
