You made me laugh so hard this morning with that sacrifice comment! I am still chuckling about it.

:beer:
 
There should be an FI quote Hall of Fame, and you sir should be nominated for a top spot, right under FAR Part 91.3a.
Thank you sir, but I was merely commenting on how I see things. There's some guys on here who have changed the way I think about my job, and once or twice about life in general, so I'll pass on top honors to some of those who do more than whine (which I tend to do). ;)

I agree with you 100 percent. A person is smart, but people are stupid.
That was a line out of a movie, wasn't it? "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, and dangerous and you know it."

Name that movie!

There should also be an FI Moronic Quote Hall of Fame, and the author of your tagline should get top honors there.

Nu
Yeah, the poor guy drew so much heat for it he disappeared off FI or changed his screen name and simmered down a bit. I WAS getting ready to change it but haven't found anything nearly as entertaining yet.

This thread has a definite runner-up for the position:

PHXFLYR's post about Megadeth's FIANCE??!!! about covered my screen with coffee this morning.

She's a great sport, and he didn't mean anything by it, so it's all in good, clean fun. :beer:
 
WOW! Will you ditch that other guy and marry me??

Nu

don't laugh... that could be some seriously HOT sex. Of course, hard to say what sort of aesthetics you're dealing with.

Tommy Lee Jones, Men in Black.

Pax are funny. We're clearly not running enough planes into the ground lately. Since there haven't been any major airline accidents since 2001, we pilots must have the cushiest jobs on the planet. Back in the days of Eastern and TWA, when at least one jet was going down in the U.S. every couple of years, airline pilots were getting all the pay and respect in the world. It's a natural evolution: Everything's safer, so everyone needs to find a new excuse to bitch.

Awww, someone beat me to it. It was MIB...and it's very true. A person alone is fine, people together are, well, a mob, and you what they're like.

Yea, I like MD too. She has a lot of spunk, and reminds me of Holly Hunter in "Always"...

Who's laughing? I could use a date with a fiery gal with a mind of her own, and I could care less about the looks. The pimped up gold digger clones around here are brainless, tiresome and annoying.They're always looking to put their hand on my goods....and no, I mean my wallet.

I swear dating sucks. Anyone got that number to the monastery?

You mean there are still chicks in this industry who are hot AND actually think a pilot's wallet is still worth fleecing? I know a few guys who might like introductions!
 
I looked on that board but couldn't find the topic. WHat sub link is it under?
I want to flame the jerk who think we just sit around and get paid for nothing.
 
Here's what I do when people when they bitch about my working hours or how much I get paid. I merely tell them that we are hiring and that I'd be happy to put a recommendation in for them. I say it with a smile on my face and they usually say "But I don't have the qualifications to be a pilot" and I say "EXACTLY".

Then I also remind them that usually when they fly in one of those cramped RJ's that we all hate...that the pilots (OK usually on the FO, but I take a little liberty here) are making much less than the inept TSA agent that just screened their baggage.

Usually then there are the sounds of crickets and I start talking about the weather. Seems to work most of the time.
 
Excellent job Potato and Nu. Bonus points, and you move to the next round. :) Maybe Mega will give you a rose ceremony. ;)

Your best bet for hot girls without money-grubbing ways and sh*tty attitudes to boot is to leave the country.

Seriously.

Canada's good. Iceland and Norway are better. Over there a college education is REQUIRED and they tend not to breed outside of their own unless they're going to leave the country which doesn't happen a lot.

If you can get one of THOSE girls interested in you, it'll be a fun time and I guarantee she's not after your wallet. In all honesty most of those girls make more than American guys until you hit the left seat at a Major.

Turns out...the biggest mouth on there (besides me of course) is a "corporate officer"......hmmmmm, explains a lot of things and why he says them. It was like pulling teeth to get him to say what he did. He could have saved me a lot of frustration by telling me right away but instead he said it was "none of my business". Gee, I wonder why. :rolleyes:

Heyas Lear,

You are dead on correct. I read "The Predatory Female" some years back...someone had given it to me as a gag gift. I thought the guy was obviously bitter cause he was an a$$ and got worked over for it.

Re-reading later in life I find that the guy is still bitter, but for very good reasons, and he is mostly correct.

These days dating is an absolute wasteland. The smart, self-sufficent females are just as tired of the scene as I am, and so there is zero opportunity to meet. Everyone just stays at home and plays World of Warcraft.

I agree with you %100 regarding the imports. I need to check out the PhDs at the local university.

I have a hard time believing hot chics are home playing Warcraft. Remind me never to bid a trip with you.

:rolleyes:

I didn't say I was after the "hot chicks" and where I live they are all gold-diggers anyway.

I vastly prefer the smart, "verging on cute" chicks myself. Looks fade, but afterward you still need someone that's interesting to talk to. Non-vegitarian is a must, and cooking is a plus, but not a requirement.

Hey Magetdeathbeeeouch!!!

.....I hate lazy people,

People claim the Southwest Airline Pilots "work harder then anyone" or "you guys fly to much" - so my question is: Are we lazy or hard working? We arn't suing anybody so why you be hating us?

Boxes don't bitch.

"but bitches fly boxes. :eek:"

- the SWA/FO :pimp: (save that quote you O-6's)

Which guy is the corp officer. I started reading that thread when it first opened and I had to stop due to the associated nauseau.

Thanks. Glad to hear you got a smile out of it. Kinda nice to do that for someone else ...and nice to see that some people have a sense of humor and can take things in the manner in which it was intended.

Thanks for the honorable mention!! ( although I sincerly hope it wasn't for admission to "The Moronic Quote Hall of Fame" ;) ). I think what really made the quote special for me is that Megadeth got a hugh laugh out of it.And isn't that what life is all about; trying to bring a smile to another person's face,even one you've never met?


PHXFLYR:cool:
 
When they complain about a landing, just tell them to come up and talk you through it next time. When they complain about your salary, tell them they have no idea what your job entails and they therefore have no idea of your value.

And if that doesn't work, just smile politely and tell them to STFU...

WELL SAID.

Duuuuuuude! That's him! No wonder he didn't want to tell me what he did. It's all clear to me now! I would love to call him up and just go off but with my luck, he would sue me for calling him a rapist or something.

To the first comment I ask..........WHAT THE F*** ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??????????????? I said I hate lazy people and you translate that into "capt. megadeth hates SWA pilots". You are messed up.

To the second comment I say......you are one classy guy....how did you slip through the cracks at KoolAid Central???? You must have gotten hired when they were hard up. :laugh:
