I had a downtown Chicago layover with a 0425 pickup. The limo never shows. We call them and they tell us to wait. And then at 0500 the dispatcher calls us and says that they're not coming - we should take a cab to MDW.
***** Limo service sucks! They are never on time for the Chicago *********(downtown) layover.
Anyway, now that I'm out $35 of MY OWN money, what is the procedure for getting reimbursement?
Yeah, yeah ... I know ... "It's on Deltanet!"
But WHERE??
Thanks!

Ah, I get upset sometimes listening to senior guys brag about them doing this or that, while at the same time they could probably hold captain on something nice. If people want to be PFOs, then that is up to them I guess. For the rest of us junior guys, it just means more stagnation. Maybe I'll get to see Saipan too someday. Just venting, sorry.
Don't be mad at Ferd. He was in the class ahead of me, so I kind of know what his seniority horsepower can pull, and if I were him and living out West, I would do the same thing. He's probably very smart to just sit tight for just a little while longer.
Don't worry. You will get to see Saipan soon enough and maybe Uncle Ferd will be there to be your tour guide.

I really was serious that my ego (and it's big) doesn't need to be a captain. Also, when I talked about people jumping between bases with the APA I wasn't talking about me. I never did it as it's all about the commute for me and I didn't want the extra time zone problems that DTW caused.
Sorry if I came across as one of those guys I never want to come across as..............

Bill, no biggie........I'll be your RP and buy you more beer than you want in NRT sometime. Plus, I'll give you the bad boy tour map for Saipan when ever you can hold it

dude, do everybody a favor and just walk on set and kick his ass before the show even starts.

Ferd, if you ever need a tour of the north alpharetta/lake lanier from the poor mans view let me know, thats all I got. No saipan but theres a Panda Express down the street, they have orange chicken. I would give you an ATL airport tour but evidently I'm never there and probably won't be back this month looking at my raw score.

Money does not mean the world to me. I am at the bottom of the list and already make more than I spend. It's all about the base and QOL. I don't think its fair to burn a guy for that. He is happy.
I for one plan on moving to the base and equipment that makes me happy and move left only if/when, it suits my QOL. Moving left may never work out for me but I've got no ego to bruise and pleanty of cash as it is.
Bid what you want, want what you bid.
Buy what you can afford and live like a king.
