Captain Jim's Drunken Dream

Is now a reality. My internets moniker (what I think the kids call a 'screenname' these days...) is now no longer an ironically appropriate homage to the James Taylor song-- I'm actually Captain Jim now. I have an E-145 type on my ATP certificate, have said farewell to our training center in Houston, and am now lounging in my apartment in Hoboken awaiting the call for my OE trip. I'm done. I'm back.

Last night, after having been up since 11 p.m. the previous day to do my LOFT sim at 2:30 in the morning and catch a 8:30am deadhead back to Newark, we (meaning my fiance, her parents and I) caught the D train to the Bronx to go to Yankees Stadium, which I had never done before. Cool, cool stuff. I slept till noon today.

It's good to be home.
 
Figured you'd be upgrading with the lack of Capt Jim's Friday Night Karaoke Party posts. Congrats! Man you guys are blowing through the Xjet seniority list!
 
Congrats Jimbo!

I wonder what the New FO's will think when they get assigned to you on their first trip off of IOE... and Ol' CapnJim pulls out the Jolly Roger Headsets!!! :)

Thanks all! OE has yet to be sceduled (thank god...) so I'm enjoying a few days at home.

Bob, I think I'll save the Jolly Sigtronics till after my Fed ride...
 
Congrats!

Hoboken? I grew up in Weehawken. I tried to catch a Yankee game when I was in town a few weeks back but they only had single seats available. Congrats again and good luck!
 
Woo Hoo! Nice job Capn! :D

Yeah, I'd probably recommend waiting until after the fed ride to bust out the Jolly's.
 
Congrats Jimbo. We'll probably end up flying together at sometime, I'm finishing up my second OE pairing starting on Tuesday and then shortly after that I'll be sitting reserve up there in Newark.

I'll give you a call once I'm all setup at the crashpad, we'll have to go get a beer.
