Does this mean we can get rid of the early 1990s clip art on icrew? And get rid of taking 4-5 pages of OK, date DDMMM type Y or N if you really want to abandon this request, type Y or N again in the tiniest little box that you can't find to signfy you really meant it plus now type date MMMDDYYYY. On the next page its YYMDMDMYY.
And could we get rid of INVALID END DATE, DID YOU DO AN AUTOLAND YES OR NO OTHERWISE HIT CANCEL AS IF YOU'RE CANCELING EVERYTHING YOU JUST TYPED and USE PREF KEYS (@#%@) and having to pull out our sheet of paper to write down pairing numbers so that 10 pages later when we get to PCS we remember what it was we were asking for in the first place.
We are in the age of the mouse you know. And I think we're done with the decade we never could name, I think. Or is 2010 the last year?

Its always enjoyable to have 18 different passwords...all unique, probably part of the security.

We need to hire some of the IT guys from Skywest. When I worked there, the computer system they had was very user friendly.
Has anybody ever encountered this when calling the Crew Line?
"Welcome to Delta's crew operations system. We are currently experiencing system problems. Please call again later."
What the heck is that? Does that mean I can go home?

It happened a couple of months ago, the system went down and you could not call. It wouldn't accept your employee number and password as valid. I thought it was because I was fired but it was because the system was down.
Just log on to icrew and if you got a 23K then it will say this:
You Have Been Assigned 0300 SC
Acknowledge by entering your DBMS Password: *********
Enter your employee Number: ******
Select Y or N to acknowledge you entered your employee number: *
Enter the start date of the rotation you were originally assigned: DDMMMY
Its all in fun.

For reserve pilots you have to look for this clip art... if you're only looking for clip art instead of words.

Holy crap!! The 29th is right around the corner. I'm scared.
No serious. Another question.
Let's say I don't want to fall below 80% in DTW and would rather be at 60% in MSP, is there a way I can bid for that?
I really am scared.

We're all scared new, the screaming inside of my head is so loud lately I can't hear the other voices.
Are you asking this?
1. DTW DC9 A 80% (if you end up DTW DC9 A 80.1% then go to 2)
2. MSP DC9 A 60% (if you end up MSP DC9 A 60.1% then go to 3)
3. DTW DC9 A
I think I'm saying that right. If you can't be 80% or better in DTW then you want to go to MSP but only if you're 60% or better or go to your next choice.

Hummm. Thanks Forgot!! And that goes on my AE??
I think you answered two questions for me.
1.) How I am supposed to bid if I fall below a certain percentage.
2.) Why there seem to be so many people bidding my crappy DC-9 seat that are senior to me.
The senior pilots in my position who put a similar bid in would show up on that senior pilots bidding a position thing, wouldn't they? Eureka!!!
