You guys will never believe what happened to me today !!! So I was bored out of my brains, and decided to nonrev to Denver, rent a car and get on I-70 west towards Loveland ski-resort. It has been a while for me, and I love skiing so why not....
So I’m sitting there, in loveland fat, dumb and happy enjoying the slopes in beautiful Colorado, while all at sudden I realize I can’t control myself anymore while I can see a tree getting closer and closer to me !! ******************** !!! I can see my life flashing by while getting closer and closer, when just in time, I manage to fall down-myself instead of hitting this ‘tree’....
“are you ok son?” Is the first thing I hear when I look up, while whipping snow of my face.
“ehh, yeah I guess” is my responds. Well, apparently it wasn’t a tree I was about to hit, but it was Mr, Frontier CEO, Jeff potter him self!
“wow, MR Potter, I’m your biggest fan !”
“Yeah Yeah whatever...” he snuggles as he continues his way down the slopes.
Before I can even blink my eyes I realize he dropped his PDA so I try to shout his name but it is to late, Mr potter is long gone.. oh well, I’ll drop by his office tomorrow to give him his PDA back, together with my resume while I’m at it, Is the first thing that crosses my mind.
Well guys, I know I am not supposed to do this, but guess what I read on his PDA....
NOTES TO SELF Nov 21st....
- Make pilot group believe AirTran will buy us out
- Make pilots believe they have to take pay cuts in order to compete SouthWest in the West.
- Re negotiate pay scales for our future 70 seaters down to Mesa’s 50 seat pay scale. (just tell ‘m it will allow for us to buy new airplanes and keep competing SW)
- Tell SkyWest and Horizon they still have a chance to be our feeder out of Denver
- Merge with AirTran in 2010
- Dont forget to cash my check I got from MESA’s Jo. O. this week.
- Tell my girlfriend I really need to spend this christmas with my wife.
Jeff.
Wow... What do you make of that guys ?? And guess who I found on his speed dial.....
What a day. Good thing I'm back in good ole safe Alabama... I'll need a few drinks tonight to let the above sink in...
