This should be easy, given what I have seen on the comparisons.

*disclaimer - I know how good the SWA contract really is
Love it...

I'm hungry now.

BTW, yes there are 3 Waffle Houses on Virginia Avenue. One on the hotel side of 85, one at Spondivits and the other further down by Willy's and the Greek Gyro place.

But sometimes you can get lucky and eat at one and look at the other:

Exactly correct! But instead we have DALPA erroneously talking about how you: "better be careful what you wish for because SWAPA's contract would require us to furlough_____pilots because the SWA pilots are so much more_____than we are."

More importantly, it would be easily defensible in front of the NMB at the end of the process to simply say: "SWA plus 5%...scope and all."

He probably answered the question about what do you do if a pilot shows up without his hat correctly

You said that this Krash guy isn't one of them hat guys... and I said I'll bet he is now... or all of this operation visine garbage I have been hearing since the merger is nothing but a bunch of whiny bull****. IOW.. It would seem that the "red" is now firmly in control is one of the guys that high up can blatantly and willfully blow off something in the policy manual. and last I heard, the uniform was in the policy manual. SO if he DOESN'T say something to one of you guys that is carrying your hat in hand as you walk down the concourse, he has already lost my respect.

That is a correct statement. Just look up in the PWA Sec 24 J. Spells out who gets paid what and why..... although I did not see anything about a $1000 stipend. Is that a sideletter somewhere?

I do, however, draw the line at Awful House.

Really happy to see Krash get the ATL gig. I'm loving this team coming together!
Grits are neither good nor bad. They are a neutral medium for delivering cheese, butter and salt. Think of them as the cement holding the food pyramid together.

...also a NC boy
