@jtrain609, the reason why y'all didn't have the EWR issues was you would see it two legs a trip, the first and then last of trip.

We saw it every leg.

Was it tough walking up hill both ways in the snow with no shoes on?

How are your 'crew meals'?

I thought we talked about this.

 

[juxtapilot]

Yes.

We must have flown into different EWR's.

I had plenty of 5 leg days in and out of Newark. The trick was having early shows so that you made your turns before the international push in the evening.

Did you fly into ewr in the summer of 2008? @Seggy is right. Nothing compares. 1.5 hour taxis if u had the 9pm departure bank. It was brutal. Ewr is way better now.

@amorris311 I got bwi instead of lax tmrw. I tried. Gonna riot instead of be liberal.

Probably either the Holiday Inn where you stayed for the interview or the courtyard Marriott. When I was there you could get the delta rate for like $65 a night.

This guy here lived like a king during initial while I was living in a van down by the river.

Is Seattle going to go Junior? The only way I would come over to the dark side is if I could get Seattle. I really dont want to commute, but if our company sticks to the 4000tt required to upgrade then I will consider it.

A couple new hires just got it out of training...

Do you have a job offer in hand?

Nope. Not yet. Just something I am thinking about.

Is Seattle going to go Junior? The only way I would come over to the dark side is if I applied, successfully interviewed and was then extended an offer of employment, understanding that until I do, I'd continue to have my balls busted by @jtrain609, and I could get Seattle.

FIFY.

True. But you have the idea before that happens.

Got a class date!

Will we need to bring a flight case for the Day 1 orientation, or are manuals issued after return from CBT?

You will not be issued manuals. You will be given an IPad on day 1, nothing else.

In fact you only need to wear an iPad on day 1, nothing else.
