YX Pilots Lose Pass Travel

Well of course not! Why rock the boat when you fly the EMB190 Mainline Guppy Killer Superjet??

Actually saw an RAH 190 crew at SFO Friday(strange sight as I've never even saw a YX crew here before), the F/Os bag had a sticker that said "Jumbo Jet Pilot". It was obviously sarcastic, and I thought it was pretty funny. I guess if you can't laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at?

I keep hoping that someone from RAH will go to the DOL to complain about a hostile work environment based on his religious diatribes that include topics as controversial as abortion.

Honestly, if I were at RAH, it woulda already been done. Anyone that gets into religion discussions with me knows it's true. :) I'm all for people praying by themselves at lunch or something at work, however when you try to lead a group prayer before the ride opens with everyone and chastise the people that don't want to do it, you've overstepped your bounds. Universal Studios management agreed.
 
I'm religious, but even I don't think it's appropriate (even though I agree with a lot of what he puts in his letters). That stuff doesn't belong in the work place.

Exactly. The question isn't what's "right", it's whether some self-satisfied liar who exemplifies every Un-Christian tendency of modern America ought to be foisting his hypocritical sermons on his employees. I'm a dyed in the wool Agnostic, but I have deep respect for Christians who actually live by the "Word". Forcing your lessers to read a frothing screed about how they ought to be living their lives whilst you accumulate a tremendous amount of extremely worldly wealth isn't the Bible I was brought up with.

Amen, brother, amen.
 
When I'd work there, I'd just read what I wanted and ignore the rest.

The boss's perspective on how he runs the show, whether I agree or not is not important, was always good insight. I'd skip the rest.

Let me summarize 1999-2007 BB updates (paraphrased to my liking of course, but please get ahold of them and see it's all about right):

"Time for my weekly update. I really should write them weekly, but I've been busy. I realize we've added 1 airplane a week and hired a bunch. We've gone from underdog that might go out of business to the fastest growing, and probably the most profitable airline in the world. However, with all the RFPs out there, oil price volatility, codeshares, shareholder value, stock market, terrorism, regulations and whatnot, things are all doom and gloom up here, inspite of analysis by stock pros and historical prospective to the contrary"

<insert Christian message>

<insert dour industry news [as if there's any other kind - amazing how this industry can take the best of times and make them look terrible! Priceless, unless you have stock options at $0.50/share!]>

God Bless

When you walk into a bar with an out of state ID and they'll give you crap about a football game six years ago, this was a major faux pas.

I had a cab driver once in Green Bay intentionally drive me past Favre's house when he found out I was from Texas. I'm not sure what he was trying to prove but the banter was a lot of fun.

I remember when we picketed Skyway HQ. We had more locals out there with torches and pick axes than we did total employees at the company.

Not just MKE - WI in general. I used to do a lot of business up there, and the people are simply the nicest, friendliest, most hospitable folks I have ever met anywhere in the country.

If it wasn't so damned cold in the winter there I'd give it serious consideration.
 
That's why it took a cheesehead to convince me it was time to give up my swingin' single life! :)

You know it's 11 and she's still in bed, what the heck!
