anybody else having trouble with the optional life insurance selection on the enrollment site? Every time I select any change whether or up or down it says "you're not eligible to use this feature".
I had to call and get them to do it over the phone and they changed it on the spot. Some sort of computer glitch.

I just called the MEM chief pilots office to get my SIDA paperwork started so I wouldn't have to endure the new screening proceedures, and was told that Uniformed Crews are exempt in MEM until next spring some time (March or April). That was all the info I got, they weren't sure if that meant the old scanners or just a basic pat down. Either way it's good news.
Mods please delete if this is considered SSI or a violation of any sort.

Are they not smart enough to get academic scholarships? 
I saw a news article about Harvard and the endowment. If I remember correctly, it said that many/most kids received almost full tuition/board is the parents made under something like $200K.
Of course, there's always the boat school!

Boat school is always an option. I was thinking University of Texas but it is up to the kiddos, maybe

Question about bidding for next month... I'm a line holder this month with carryover into December. It is almost 11 hours worth and I am considering bidding reserve for December. Does that 11 hours go on top of 70? I don't want to lose money by bidding reserve....

Hey, speaking of computer glitches.....................
Anyone having problems logging completion of the RTGS Bridge Supplement Training? I've got a completion code and entered it but I keep getting the popup. It's even showing on my timecard.
No one in ATL to answer a phone I guess. Called the CPSC who forwarded me to records where I left a message but no one returned the call. Also called the fleet number at the bottom of the letter, left a message with two different people but again no call back.
I've got a perfectly good completion code..........not that it's doing me any good.

Ferd,
My reminder continued to pop up for several days after I completed the training. As long as it shows you completed I think you're good. They'll get that pesky reminder off eventually.

No it does not..you'll get credit for the days you worked, not the hours. I don't have the table handy but you might end up with one less day on reserve. Your RAW score will give you credit for the time you flew into Dec. Bid a schedule if you can, unless you want a 70 hr paycheck.

No gas wells out West where I'm at, but we've got water rights which might be worth just as much as gas someday around here. My Dad runs about 1500 acres and none of my siblings want anything to do with it which is great as far as I'm concerned.
I stopped putting money into IRA's and my 401K a lot of years ago and now buy property with water rights....not sure how that will work out, but at least I've got something. If this career doesn't get back to what it was in the next 10 years, I'll be leaving at 45...if it does get back then I'll stay until I can make more farming or I get tired of flying.
