That is awesome and a badge of honor! Before I retired mine I was considering putting Bondo on the brim and painting it! Not buying a new FO hat is a matter of principle!

My hat is nearly dead, bought it in 1992. I've had to sew the band back in twice, sharpie the brim, crazy glue the edging, twice. I put off buying a new one for the past 5 years thinking that Richard would make it optional like he did at NW.

This TA sucks so bad and we didn't even get optional hats!

But you KNOW as soon as I buy a new one, the next day the hats will be optional!

If only that worked for a non-rev (gate pass)!

Default Old Hat Story

CA's hat blows off and is destroyed by a tug. His claim for a new one is denied, so next trip he tells the S/O "Let me fill out the pay sheet this time." When the beancounters get the pay sheet, they are puzzled by a note in the "remarks" section which says:
"The hat's in there."

Actually it would work with your nonrev seat assignment, if they'd give it to you with enough time to drop in. Have to settle for Mimosas

Block off 15 seats and it'll do just fine!

Default Scheduling question

Pretty sure I know the answer to this, just want to make sure.

I haven't sat res in a long time, and have a reserve line next month. I'm off through July 2, I sit res July 3-8. If I White Slip a 3 day trip on July 1, do I get the day off back?

I'm thinking that I don't, just making sure.

Thanks

You can only Green Slip from Reserve, not White Slip. You can YS of course but I don't think that's your question.
