Sounds like someone has a poopie they're proud of and wants a picture of it!

You saw a need and wanted to help out your coworkers. Honestly, that means a lot in my book. The fact that your supervisor got upset over a mistake tells me more about them than you. A good supervisor doesn't get upset, they work to fix the issue and prevent it next time.

You tried your best. Sometimes it doesn't work out. That's okay. We're humans. We're supposed to make mistakes.

Turns out, finding casters that will fit in the J-rail bogey slots on this chair is a lot more difficult than I thought. I may have to fabricate an entire base for this thing to turn it into an office chair.

So next week I start back school. I had to sign up for a second class for my financial aid to kick in, so we're doing two now! Also found out my AP/IB scores should still count so that's gonna save me so much money. 12 years since I graduated high school. :O

So work denied my schedule shift that I began asking for over a year and a half ago so I can start school. Now they're denying me an hour early leave so I can have a meeting with my advisor for my one class per semester. 😐🤬

So, leave an hour earlier, get first class, and $35 back and an e credit? Don't mind if I do!

By sound only, I guessed a flex temp of 38. According to the FO, it was 36. 😁

First run on over a year since I had gotten RSV and messed up my back again. That was tough. But, I still have it. I'm 50 pounds heavier but I'll get back to it. 😁

I go fast enough to not get run over. But once we go more than five to ten over, depending on conditions, I'm done and I move all the way to the right. I refuse to drive left lane anywhere.

Yea that's what I meant. I know a lot of cargo operators did it, UPS being one. ABX I figured would do it. I saw a few unsourced rumors online that DAL had done a few too. 🤔 Thank you!

Does anyone with insider knowledge happen to know if any of the Air Line 757/767 fleet got the upgraded avionics package? I know a bunch got cabin refreshments but I have yet to find any information on a new avionics package.

Interested to see if it stays the A330. If I remember correctly the entire Pacific network from the mainland is A350 now. (HNL to Tokyo is 767-300)

I completely agree with you. Funny, my experience been the opposite though. I even had a CA and FO ask if I could back up a FA report of fumes on landing. While I couldn't, I was also very clear in saying that my position wouldn't have helped due to seating and air conditioning configuration.

My ride out has finally arrived. We're only about six hours late. I regret having a 4 AM wakeup now. Also my first special livery! My favorite 737. 😁

The flight to Minneapolis was gonna be too late to catch my connection. I had to change it back to my original flight to ATL. Lost the upgrade, but idc. I didn't bring my night bag. Just a camera. 😂

I'm still stuck in O'Hare due to it. Was gonna go direct back to Atlanta, now I gotta go through Minneapolis 😂 AND STILL GET HOME at the same time.

Change of plans. Going to Minneapolis, then Atlanta. I'll get home about the same time. Considering, with the e credit of the seat upgrade, this trip has cost me $5... I'll take it. 😂

We made it in just BEFORE the first storm hit. We literally took a tour of the airport, parked in timeout. The taxi time was almost as long as the flight time. 😂

A longer day today. Up to Chicago with United then back down with Delta. At least I got the free upgrade to first class on the way back. 😁 Let's see how this weather plays out. Fingers crossed for some turbulence.

Busy afternoon in Atlanta for Approach Monitor. "Standby for approach monitor" as the PRM monitor controller dishes out a dozen directions a minute to help these planes avoid wind shear.

One thing that I'm used to is "oh do you want a trading card?" No. I want to know the assumed temperature on takeoff. The crew looks at me like I'm crazy. Thankfully though, they entertain me and I'm usually pretty accurate based on hearing the engine. 😂
