[CA1900]

And I don't re-edit my posts after thinking of something new, kid. What would be on your chin is my f'ng boot, son.

Post of the week!

I heard that joke on NPR (National Proletariat Radio) discussing the writers strike. I heard of the writer's strike on the radio (country station) as well. I don't know any of their issues, but I do know that writing well takes time and effort. How many producers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Answer Does it have to be a lightbulb? Only if you need light.
And I tell you as a flops pilot there are times when I wish we could be MORE like the Teamsters of old.
Office you are in big trouble!

Nomore, I think that some good old fashioned grit and determination will see you and your fellow pilots through. Your cause is justified so you're already on the high road. Now just dig in and hold your ground. When you're frustrated just remind yourself that it's always darkest before the dawn. They will get the message. It's kinda hard to ignore it when it is placed prominently in letters 10 feet tall... NJW

...I got a new gig on a Part 91 Gulfstream. Congratulations on that! NJA is the only one I'd even consider going to. Hey, I just posted that that is the case for many pilots. I'll just drag you over to that thread (gotta love copy and paste) as my example in the flesh...or print, rather... NJW - you gave me a good laugh about the parking lot, but I know you're married and I am, as well. And credit is due to those who fought for what they have, and still have coming to them - that would be the Teamsters. Plain and simple....

I gave up dark parking lots; just too embarrassing getting busted by the police....:blush: My soon to be husband thought it was [story deleted to honor request of other participant] ....let me just say I prefer [ private subject matter deleted............] .....post interrupted by phone ringing.... it was my husband.... talk about being busted.... Sorry, I was digressing .... delete ... delete..

I agree that those who fought the early fights to establish unions are deserving of our respect and gratitude. All the more reason why the antics of a few are deplorable for casting aspersion on the good work done by many. Leaving reputations aside, I still think the NJ pilots could do a lot for their group with the 90K sent to the national each month and the greater autonomy would make a positive difference in the day to day running of the union. I know that 1108 would like to have electronic voting, for example, but IBT doesn't allow it.

Don't you know not to judge a book by its cover... For Halloween I dressed as a witch during family time and in the adults hours I was a pirate... I may have a kind heart, but I don't wear a halo....
