How exactly does she need a thighmaster? Or what is a thighmaster for? Maybe thighmaster = Columbia? Is that what you meant?

I agree, that's what would happen in that situation.

Anyone have a solution to a AK merger that, if forced to merge, we could find palatable for our brethren in LAX?

Swap with Pot?

Yes. To swap with a trip in open time, use Swap with the Pot. The Swap Board is for pilot-to-pilot swaps.

It obviously resides in the T-shirt you so artfully designed....

Are those car keys in her hand? She won't be needing those either.... nor the wallet that probably resides in that European shoulder bag. Good for her, but did ya'll know they awarded a CMOH yesterday too? To a guy that is still alive. Here's raising a glass to him and all those like him...

Hear, hear! Four MOH's since 9/11 and he the first to be awarded the CMOH while still living!! Should be many more in my opinion. Check out the story of Rafael Peralta, for example. I'm carrying his torch out here in So Cal.

Both of those pairings would have worked on my schedule and my trip on the 26th would have work on both of their schedules. My request was denied, but the pilots junior to me were granted the days I wanted... Does unstacking just say FU to seniority?
This is all conjecture but I think PBS looks at the trips available when it is processing your bid. If it determines that unstacking needs to happen, then you are unstacked. Probably, by the time PBS got to the junior guys bid, no more unstacking was needed on the 26th so voila! They get the days off and you don't. Again, this is all conjecture on my part!
