These are possibly some of the lamest threats/retorts I have ever read. Similar to a "Who's got the biggest d#$k" competition at a Junior Achievement conference.

P.S. I don't take offense to being called a "tranny". I guess it depends on the context in which it's used. Examples...
1. "Hey Tranny, you suck! You were acquired, not hired" Not welcoming or indicative of the servant heart or warrior spirit.
2. "Hey Tranny, would you like a beer? I'm buying!" Completely acceptable.
 
Not passive aggressive enough. I'd have to respectfully decline.
 
Instructor dude is a SWA pilot? That figures.
 
Unless you bid FO, you'll never have the pleasure of flying with me. But if you keep running your mouth, we'll dance.

I hope that's true so stay in your deluxe RJ forever and please dont pollute our culture .......I hope GK dumps the RJ's asap along with the likes of you and all like you.......you made a bunch of money on this deal ......or at least you could of if you guys were not so greedy and said no to the first good offer......now you get less.....please vote no again and see what you end up with......a$$ munch.......I hope you act this way on an overnight and get fired soon

You really don't get it, a 737 pilot calling the 717 a "deluxe RJ". Too funny!

Especially one who is so proud of the "culture" of the world's largest PFT regional airline.
 
Unless, of course, you compare stock prices....
 
Well, we serve international destinations AND Hawaii. So far, you're just wannabes...

"Wannabe" what?

I have no wish to go to either HI or international. I do enjoy my "regional" schedule and paycheck though......

What do you consider "international"? If it can be done with a "deluxe RJ" then I got news for you, it may technically be international, but not really...... The only difference is the customs hassles that I don't have to deal with as a pure domestic guy.

I used to do that kind of "international" in Beech 99s/1900s, C-402s, BA3100s etc. You can have it......

If we ever do the real international thing, the only reason I'd bid it is if it paid significantly more than what I'm doing now. Unlike most non SW guys on this board, I only go to work to get paid.

Just curious...

Is the term "tranny" a bad word? Neutral? A term of endearment or of derision? It's obviously short for Airtran, but could also be seen as implying trans-sexual, so who knows? Some of the people on the forum refer to SWA pilots as "corndogs" and that doesn't bother me (but maybe it's because I don't know where it came from).

So what say you, my Airtran bretheren? Good? Bad? Like it? Hate it? Proud of it? Want to shoot someone everytime you hear it? This is sort of an informal poll. Also, is it "tranny" or "trannie"? Thank you for your support.

NOTE to Kharma Police: Don't worry-we already know what you think. Word is, you've got "Trannies forever!" tattooed on your shizznitzel. :)

Yes, still bored on my overnight....

No it is six
 
I have to agree with tri-power. I don't care where I go as long as I get to do three days on/ four days off with a nice pay check. Looking forward to crossing the fence.
