And don’t forget changing up the STAR multiple times and you’re already descending

At least many of the fixes have cool names.

lol man she does !!!! Every time I am there I’m like what the hell is this lady rambling about ...

I ll give her credit she does her job well, but adds a bit of un-needed complication with that voice.

I think I heard her on the new ramp metering frequency which is a much better suited job for her.

Yeah she’s been doing that for ever and I know she’s been briefed on it and asked to not do it. I guess she’s not going to change.

But you needed to know about that other traffic that’s going to be coming in the other side after an RJ exits that is number 6 in line and that there might be a catering truck in the way.

She is painful to deal with. Her slow talking and drolling on about nonsense probably costs United a few thousand gallons a year in fuel costs while people wait for taxi instructions. She is just not a good person to have talking on a radio.

Saw skywest CRJ's using the trailer park gates on the A terminal, is that temporary while the B concourse is under construction? I suspect that may be permanent so they can use the jet bridges for 175's and mainline equipment on the B terminal?
