Can you send one to Bill Lumberg for me?

I'll pay for it as soon as he upgrades.

Lumberg has wallpapered his bedroom with them. Sailing gladly installed them.

That being said, losing the option to not exceed ALV does stink.
True..i meant to separate the two..but then again i'm still junior in category because nobody has been hired in 2 and a half years.

In terms of base and equipment? Whatever they can hold based on their seniority.

321's are close to being finalized.

744's are similar.
Mmmmmm...widebodies...hiring...make it so!

Maybe the company won't wait until we start canceling flights due to lack of pilots.

I just want to live in domicile in MSP!

"Re-Orientation?"

Is it just me or does that pamphlet have an Orwellian tone to it?

I think returning Pilot Orientation would suffice.


Pilot Survey results, on day 1 of Re-Orientation:

Reserve Sucks.
We want more pay.
We want more Whales.
We want even more pay.
We want more!

Pilot survey at the successful completion of Re-orientation:

Gate latency must be reduced to zero.
Hats rule.
We think some third hand Eastern European, formerly Sub Saharan African Douglas jets makes sound financial sense.
Can we volunteer to give up more profit sharing?

I was talking about the reorientation book. Is it new (for recalled furloughees) or has it been around?

I miss poor Bill. I'd love to get his take on the state of affairs nowadays.
