Fellas, I'm on mil leave and didn't get the ALPA letter on scope or the AE letter. Would someone mind pm-ing me a copy? I would like keep my finger on the pulse, so I know (a) how angry to be while I'm in a position to do nothing about it, and (B) what I should bid when I get back.

How legit is this? I didn't get 12 hours notice yet Now I'm expected to make report time which She knows I wouldn't have made if called at 0330. I've been on mil leave for over a year and don't remember this tactic.
Sometimes they get sneaky like that. It's exceedingly rare for me to answer my phone when scheduling calls unless I am looking for the call for that very reason.

Speaking of hawking the computer, I think ShyGuy may have posted. Go get him!
I got him on my ignore list and stopped acknowledging his garbage months ago

80,

Guys bid what they want. If they have to have whatever it is they're flying, it's strictly their business. You don't want to be in the business of singling out individuals, or suggesting group strategies. And this is coming from a guy that wants caps/bow-wave, and no swap-board loophole to bypass max pick-up.

The idea is nowhere near as horrible as that icrew icon for it. That's just creepy.

Maybe he's a commuter and wants to make sure he gets a trip vs. hoping a commutable GS pops up?

True that! All the ICrew icons freak me out. I have a very sensitive disposition. It's all I can do to sign in!

Remember FTB's "alternate" logos for the clip art? I'll see if I can find them... it was hilarious!
