Wallmart.

Why not, instead of motel, just go to the local Wal-Mart and sleep in the stock room? Or, on shorter layovers, just go to motels that rent by the hour? I am sure the shareholders would rejoice at the money they're saving!!

I agree ..... As chief pilot it is my job to watch out for the bottom line of our company. If it is good enough for Wal-Mart executives, it is good enough for us. Effective immediately, we are sharing rooms. Thank-you Mr G-200 for helping us save money ... why I never thought of that before is beyond me.

Wal-Mart pilots only get $25 a day for meals too. More ways to look out for the shareholders! McDonalds for everyone!

Hey once we get that socialized medicine it will be the governments problem Walmarts pilots have health problems!

 

[shanes123]

they dont tell ya that its not just the rooms there sharing..Walmart does not discriminate against alternative lifestyles..

Ok, I know everyone wants to know the porn usage schedule for when you share a room.

$25 a day goes a long way at Wel-Fare Mart, shoot you're living like a king! You'll even have some extra to share with two trailer park girls 'round the outside!

So is the Sprawl Mart Hanger and old converted Tire center? Maybe they gutted a Sam's Club?

You know, to save money in all...

How sad, this race to the bottom. Carry on guys (Gentleman would be lost on you), keep fighting for half a loaf. Enjoy the benefits. Oh, who gets the hotel points? Fookin pathetic what is posted in this thread. Might as well be a regional pilot!

Not so fast!

The benefits are pretty good!

Just by being part of the Wallmart family I get at least 15% off clothing and I recently got 25% off of tires for my truck at Sam's club.

This and the security of working for the worlds largest, best retailer makes it a pretty good package.

Oh, and we are all shareholders! - that alone puts us far above regional airline guys and their unions.

FWIW - hotels have no problem splitting the points between the 2 pilots sharing the room. Although, as a Captain I often just let my copilot keep them, kinda like a little "teamwork" perk. No big deal....plus, we are all Marriott Platinum members anyhow.

And don't forget the best part... they can take out life insurance policies on you and cash them in when you die and give none of it to your family, but instead add it to their bottom line on their balance sheet. its like a real life version of being part of the Borg Collective.


Don't believe me... google it.

ah yes, find the truth on google....:erm:

hey whatever, so long as it enhances shareholder value I'm all for it.

I can't tell what's serious and what isn't in this thread... do Wal-mart pilots actually share rooms? I work for a 135 that's pretty far down in the barrel and we don't even do that. Management tried once and we all threw a fit.

Welcome to the information age... they can't hide their dirty laundry anymore! IF there ever was a way to find out the truth to anything, the internet is it. You just have to know how to use it, to sift thru the BS .. hit order, concurrence, reference, etc..

I love google.... makes me 10 times as smart as I used to be in the 80's and early 90's..
