Those are my work shoes! Except I sharpie them black. Nice find! You can't beat the comfort and price! And no metal.

Oh you'd be surprised.

"yeah I almost have my degree but the concept is stupid and I'm pretty close"

Does it count if I draw delta widgets in the margins of my notebook during lecture?!

*asking for a friend*

If you're at a loss for conversation with this guy: "Tell me, again, why you have tape over the camera on your Surface/iPad . . . " Then, order another beer, and just sit back.

My friend heard this during a job fair when he told the applicant about minimum qualifications.

"Whatever, you'll need me. I'll wait"

"K…."

Ugh....The attitude and sense of entitlement some people hae that has come with the shortage is unreal. People need to realize that it may not always be like this and first impressions go a long way...I can think of a few names that if I'm ever in a position of screening resumes (unlikely...I'm not management material), their's will be not so neatly filed in the circular file.

At NetJets, we had a bunch of conspiracy theorists. They taped over their work phone camera and iPad cameras. Every time I flew with a guy that did that I would bring up why, and boy were the stories fun, and by fun I mean not fun at all.

"I don't want Uncle Sam knowing everything I'm doing" meanwhile I'm thinking "who wants to watch you private".

to be fair, the founder of facebook even tapes over his cameras.

To be fair, he's a much higher target than billy bob regional captain.

But the gubmint's after the captains Iraqi Dinar futures and various MLM schemes.

I've taken up the habit of sarcastically replying "Illuminati confirmed." whenever something could be construed as "conspiracy" occurs or is spotted. Flew with a new guy the other day, I don't think he got my humor and now I feel obligated to tape over my laptop and extend the ruse for the rest of our professional careers together. So if you see a pilot with a tin foil hat on the ramp....just play along.

I'm sure a bunch of (mostly) dudes who waste hours on an aviation message board are rock stars at engaging, entertaining small talk

My favorite moments in the cockpit are with the intercom turned off, a clear sky, and some peaceful reflection whilst star gazing. Some of the lifer captains around here are just exhausting to converse with...

True, but he probably has a little more reason to be concerned about intellectual property theft and other nefarious eavesdropping activity than your average airline pilot. If someone wants to watch me pick my nose while I curse about Flight Deck Pro taking eight minutes to open, they can have at it.

Certain relief in that applicant presumably slinging my gear for me some day indeed.

Also, new rules of dating: "Please have a graduate education."

"I'm better off staying at Sun Country because Delta is in the finishing touches of merging with us so I'll do much better with date-of-hire"

...which is not even how mergers are supposed to work, anymore.

Heh, there's nothing like jumpseating and being a fly on the wall for those conversations while you're commuting to your actual apartment with an air mattress in it and wondering if you still have any top ramen left in the cupboard.
