Don't set people up to get themselves handed a no show because they read what you wrote. It's simply not the way things are done. Never said I like it, or support it, because its a massive detriment to my quality of life, but it is, even if you whine about it, the way it is.
Just to clarify something from earlier. There is not a mandatory 9 hour schedule check. The cutoff for them to add something is 9 hours prior to the end of a normal non-fly day. The deadline for your schedule check is not until 0200.

Which gives you 3 hours to report for a long call assignment. You are correct.

It's a shame that the "ignore" function doesn't work for intemperate "moderators" like it does for your drank id.
So... I'm threatening to ban my alternate ID in your mind? That's logical.

Did your Florida State education provide you with a differentiation between id and ID? Daddy didn't get his money's worth...

So here's the funny part, your two most hated foils both know what the fleet plan is in the future. It is just we don't blabber on public forums about it because that would hurt ALPA's ability to get confidential information. Whatever rumors exist out there probably come from some Delta source as history has shown the leaks always originate from there.

I have said it before and I will say it again. You are just a bully that can't win an argument on facts and logic so you resort to attacks and intimidation. Pardon us if we don't get bullied by you. "Moderator", what a joke.

I think what you're trying to say is that he's a poo-poo head.

That's the graffiti I've seen.

"Stop looking here and go fix the blanky blank APU, the radar altimeter, the autothrottles, the panel back lighting, and the two or three lights the Captain always whines about when he's trying to taxi at night with his 20/100 corrected vision."

We're getting old. They are going to need to increase the size and contrast of the taxi signs when (if) I ever have to drive the thing on the ground.

He's already wearing the cone of shame. What more do you want?
