It's ridiculous any way it's looked at. Embarrassing too.

When I hit 3rd year pay my guarantee alone will be almost $7700 and no, I don't go around claiming to be a "widebody FO" as a 7ERB since I mostly fly the 757. A true widebody pilot is on the 777/747/330/76ER.
You're an ER FO and you don't claim to be a widebody FO? Something doesn't add up here bud.

Depends on the context. If someone asks me what I fly I tell them I fly the 75 & 76. I don't stick out my chest and simply say "I'm a delta widebody FO" If the person asking requested further clarification at what a 757 and 767 is than of course I would explain that the 767 is a widebody. When the original guy said he was a wide body FO I was more inclined to believe he was a 777/330/747/76 FO, not a 7ER guy. Ya'll are a bit too paranoid today. Lighten up folks.

Here's a bunch of them, racing around St. Maarten. Video - Breaking News Videos from CNN.com

I'm IN!!!!!! OF course you know that the mast on that probably cost more than my house.. but I am guessing we could find something for a more reasonable price

Just today? More like everyday! I'm expecting to read about a national tinfoil shortage any day now.

On other topic does something happen to our sick bank on June 1st? I haven't called in sick yet since I have joined DAL so I'm not very up to speed on the lingo regarding how sick pay works. Someone told recently reminded me to be sure to use some sick time by June and I didn't get it.
