CAL had some great nicknames for bases. There was the sewer by the sea, the mistake by the lake, and Baghdad on the bayou.

Actually.....in re-visiting the photo that was sent to me..... I don't think there were any SFO 756 seats offered. There was an * under EWR and SFO 737......and to the right of SFO.....under 756 there was an * that stated 50/50 split. So....I think the "* 50/50 split" was referencing an equal number of SFO/EWR 737.....and not any SFO 756 spots. Someone in the class or building can confirm that interpretation of offerings. In any event......lots of 737, a handful of 756, and no Airbii.

Something “special” like what? Maybe a poem or a gift card to bed bath and beyond?

It’s the airline industry, stuff happens. The “special” thing is they now have jobs at UAL.

Frankly, I was hoping to hear that BQ came and sang some show tunes and tap danced to them to start their career at UAL. 🤣🤣🤣

Hoss, I typically enjoy your posts but damn dude. It was a simple inquiry. Just curious. Way to smite someone for a genuine question.

Well I’m sure Hoss is a sensitive guy at heart, but maybe the years at TK had a detrimental effect. “It all comes together on the recheck”. “You we’re doing fine until you crashed”. “I can have you outa here in 3 rides”………….😳

It definitely has character, been based there 30+ years and never a dull moment.

Right? I thought he was making a joke, but I'm afraid not. People like him will be a lot better off when he realizes the Company doesn't care about us. More accurately, they hate us.

Core 2 baby. I like your style. Show up, comply with the company policies, do the job, and go home.

I was able to pick DEN as a new hire back in the day. As a 727 FE.
