Everyone is different I guess. But, I never drink on any over nights....ever. Be careful folks.

If the company is paying you a perdiem and paying for your room, drinking on an overnight isn't a great leap from drinking on company property.

Ummmm, except on company property I'm WORKING, and at the hotel I'm not?

Just a thought...

I did enjoy my 2 beers with sushi on Manhattan Beach the afternoon after we got in from flying to LAX last week. About 16 hours from bottle to throttle after 2 beers. I don't feel my professionalism was in jeopardy. YMMV.

Yeah, so funny. Another intoxicated pilot making the news is a laugh riot. No wonder you never made it further than 'da Trannie.

oh really..... where are you?

This makes no sense, it's like saying the company pays me money, I pay for my house, therefore when I'm in my house I'm on company property.

Oh, by the way, they serve alcohol on the jet which is "company property"...

Well you're in for a RUDE awakening! We've had pilot suspended for overnight activities.

Gup

I'd say it's time for the trannies to grow the h*** up if they want to finally fly in the majors.

So true. Hard to believe but somehow this guy Dylan thinks being a SWA pilot puts him above someone doing the exact same thing he is doing???
Amazing.

Nobody takes "Baghdad Bob" Dylan seriously.

So have we, that's not the point. Having a drink OUTSIDE of our 12 hour FOM requirement is not going to get anyone in any hot water whatsoever.

Now if you cause some other type of problem because you get trashed and do something stupid (or illegal), then that's another story entirely...

Not sure where you're going with your comment above with the statement I made...?
