Hey Guys

Can someone point me in the right direction? I got my line in March but the PBS "Results" says one of my requests was "honored" when in fact it was not. It's relatively important. Thanks in advance.

First Check the reasons report. I will jump in and take a look Buzz.

Also, send our Scheduling Chairman or your LEC's Scheduling guys a e-mail with your employee number so that they can tell you what is up.

Thanks ACL and 1234,

Thanks for the education guys. I was regular for a long time and then reserve for a long time now working my way back up. Just trying to understand what I think I either did or did not do correctly.

I sense a certain famous writer got unstacked?

I actually got unstacked into a line... strange but I cannot wait to get off rsv.

No, I actually got a line for the second time in three months, no unstacking that I can see, and one of my only two qualifiers says honored but, alas, I don't think it was. Its not a big deal. I'm just trying to scrape the rust off my regular line groove. Its been awhile. I'm used to a raw of 48 and my wife is getting tired of me sitting around partying with hookers and blowing up hotel rooms

No...the BEST punishment for him would be for the judge to require he dig out the dead tree(s) with a spoon, while on a live-feed CCTV for both Auburn and Alabama fans to watch. Then, have him watch as the fans from both schools replant the Toomer Trees...just to spite him, IMMHO.

If folks use common sense and try to commute as if the policy is not there, then it will not be over used and it will stick around. If folks don't try to commute on open flights and go as late as possible banking on the policy to save them, then it will create over use of the policy and possible termination. While the program was active at NWA, I used it a total of three times. All 3 times it was due to wx or maintenance cancel etc. My approach was, it was an emergency procedure you could use to get to work. Hopefully, the abusers of the policy will be called in an advised on their incorrect usage of the policy. We had very little problems with it at NWA. Should be the same results in the future. Hope so anyway.
