Default Re: Crew Room question...

Rumorville Central is what I call it. I dare anyone to make up some silly rumor and see how far it gets in a week. For instance, "I heard we're starting up a base in XXX to support our new mx base." IN two days it will travel through the company.

Brethren also means 'members of the same group'.

I know you're going to say it means brothers too, which would be correct. But, 'fellow members' happens to be the first entry on dictionary.com and websters online.

Heard this bit o' logic some time ago (as a joke)

How to tell if you started a good rumor:
- The rumor was starting in the morning and its beats you to your overnight

-------------------------------------

And oh yeah about that LGA MX base.....we totally have a MX Freq there now....its growing fast......... hahahaha

I've only started a rumor once.

Four days after starting it, the Senior Director of Flight Ops had to put the rumor to rest on his weekly voicemail. It was awesome.

I think I remember that one.

Ha! I made the voicemail, too. It was back in Feb. when he was talking about making sure you're not too early arriving into a station. That one was all me!
