Curious if anyone else has been putting their MBPr thru the TSA x-ray machine and getting away without them demanding it's removal? I've done it twice now and they've said nothing.. I had someone tell me the Air is small enough to go thru, but I wasn't sure if the MBPr was... any official word...
Reading the new UAL T/A, do I understand correctly that they intend to staple every furloughed UAL guy below all the CAL guys, Date of Hire be damned?

So I went on line to see about replacing my old and faithful 100% US Made Scott bag.... I found a site that sells them, no company website however.. but they had a note "All Scott Bags are discontinued"

Write to or call your congressman, whether D or R, and insist that they support HR 4350 to get rid of the cargo carve out...
do it for yourself and do it for the profession...
if you don't know what HR 4350 (safe skies act of 2012) is, then try google..
Look at the huge loophole towards the bottom of the release about the airlines developing their "own" program that can be approved by the FAA.. sound familiar?

So I'm curious, does anyone know the way to say "White meat chicken" in Chinese? namely Shanghaiese? I swear, I have tried to order no less than 5 different chicken dishes, and it seems all they serve you there, no matter what the price of the meal is random assortments of chicken... feet...
If I am reading this correctly, the Senate seems to have fixed the Schuster (R) Amendment 6 issue (among other problems) in the house version of the FAA bill.... From what I am reading, the entire language was struck from the House version and replaced by the Senate version...
I'm looking to hitch a ride on UPS tomorrow... I was wondering a couple of things..
-what's the usual attire? uniform? dockers? Jeans?

been a while since I've had to j/s and bring bags with.... I wonder, what is the normal max permitted number of bags you can bring with you on the j/s? For example... if you have a 22" roller, a 12"x12" duffle and a leather flight bag and/or medium briefcase, is that too much? (talking about...
I was trying to j/s out of PDX today and went to the employee line, only to be told I can't go thru the line since I'm not in uniform.. so I went and waited 30 min in the normal line, and told that without a ticket, I MUST BE IN UNIFORM again! /sigh
Anyway, I broke out the damn uniform and got...
Just heard there is a class of 14 starting next month and they're rumored to hire 60 more?? .. part attrition and part growth.. All this with the loss of the dream lifter to boot... looks like things are looking up over there..
I tried to read the 20+ pages of the NPRM and all saw was page after page of tables, matrixes and odd numbers like 12:15 and 7.25 etc...
