Living the dream!

[puttin4doh]

Is it just me, or is that the most annoying phrase in all of aviation? I hear guys say it all the time, and I just wanna smack the crap out of 'em. We don't have it all that bad....Sorry, I'm just bored today and needed to gt it off my chest. Rant over. :beer:

I forget who's signature says "NO Buck....NO Buck Rogers!". I like it.

Now if dreams could only be able to pay bills.....right...they are the ones living with Mommy and Daddy. Of course it is a dream for them...they don't believe that living at home with Mommy and Daddy is wrong. So, they are "Living in a Dream" world!

I feel soooooo much better too.

Almost as bad as "see you on the line".

"Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride."

"Hey folks, from the flight deck, your captain speaking...."

How 'bout being annoyed by threads that make fun of what is said on the P.A.? How many ways are there to say the same thing?

I'm sure before some of you became pilots, you had the whole drive thru window thing down as well. How many varieties are there to "welcome to Burger King, may I take your order?"

How about "Sorry folks but our gate is currently occupied............."

How about my personal favorite: "if you hate it so much, then quit".

“We don’t have it so bad.” Is that your true feelings, or are you trying to convince yourself of that. Let me put it into perspective for you, so you can get a sense of how ‘so bad,’ it really is. My wife is a mortgage lender, and before you jump the gun and think she make the money, it is a commission job only and times are getting bad for real estate. So here is my example of how much you mean to your company. At my wife’s office, there is a sweet young girl who is the office managers assistant. She has been there for about 3 months now, and is due to have a baby next month. She has a few years of college, no specialized training, and basically no experience in lending. Her base starting salary, because she is not commission, is $36,000/ yr plus basis point off any sale the office manager makes. Meaning that if the manager does a loan for $100,000, she would get $50 extra. Also, she will be getting paid when she take maternity. Mainly her job is to answer the phone, input loan application on a computer, and keep in touch with clients. So the next time you think we are being treated fairly by our employers remember, an F/O on a 70 seat a/c, making 36.00/ hr, is roughly being paid $ 0.51/ hr by his/her company for each passenger if the plane is full. How much is a ticket now days?
As a side note, the assistant lives in Texas. Where the average home cost, in a good neighborhood, is between $120-$180. Good luck to all of you F/O’s who live on the coasts.

"Are we there yet?"
"Hot off the press."
"One taco."
"Do you think we'll get a flow through?"
"I'm tired."
"I hope I don't get junior manned."
"Do you think we'll get rjs?"
"It's too hot."
"It's too cold."
"Are we there yet?"
"This apu sucks."
"Are we there yet?"
"What did you eat?"
"Where did you go off to?"
"Are we there yet?"
"Where are WE going to eat tonight?"

Nowhere with you.

drinksonme: Trying to convince myself of something? Sure, I come to flightinfo for free psychoanalsis. Actually, I was just tired of hearing from people that complain 24/7, and you provided a great example. If the office job sounds cushy to you, go apply. But, we all know you won't, because the only thing you like more than bitching....is flying airplanes.
