| Agent Smith  |  Re: That\'s weird!
For like the thousanth time in the eight year history of the website, I report and write about my own personal observations. I don't know what went on at Midway. I have no clue what goes on at CCAir. I know like one Mesa pilot... I don't know what goes on at (insert airline here). But under no uncertain terms am I going to tolerate being preached to about how things are at various airlines that I have no experience with nor have I ever claimed any experience with. It's just one of my huge pet peeves. For the past umpteen years, I've had more people ask "Wow! So do you bang those broads on NYC layvoers?" and it quite frankly pisses me off. I'd like to ask them, "Well, do you fornicate with your secretary and random co-workers during your lunch break? I'm sure your secretary isn't there looking forward to a forty year career answering telephones". Besides, whenever I rode Mesa between PHX and DFW, it was either dudes or old women. They could have been as 'wanderjahr' as they liked, but certainly I'd doubt if anyone would be interested. Gimme a break. |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Well, Falcon, I guess you and I have just had very different experiences. So, that could make neither of us right. After all, you say you know of more goings on than people think, I say in my experience that's not how it was. Bottom line: Keep it in your pants and you have nothing to worry about. But the playboy days of the 60s & 70s are simply long gone. [/ QUOTE ] All I'm saying is the panecea you guys want to believe exists, doesn't... I'm not saying that all airline people do this stuff, I'm just saying it happens... That's all... [/ QUOTE ]well, ya sure DO sound like your saying that ALL airline people including the wives do that type of thing - which is what i'd really like to discourage amoung our younger readers... are you starting to get my hint yet? I just don't want to keep this type of thinking going if we could actually change 1 person's mind from thinking it "still exists & it's ok".... that's my only purpose on this thread at the moment. it may still exist today, but wouldn't it be nice if tomorrow it didn"t? unrealistic yes, but not completely impossible if we just start with 1 person being the younger readers of the forum that aren't even in an airline/pro pilot position yet....maybe we could actually help fix our problem (as a nation) with relationships in todays day and age (yea, i dream big!) [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] i mean at some point, all the youngin's on this board today are going to meet the right girl and get married...do we want to give them the perception that even tho "it still exists today, you might as well keep up the appearance because it's not going away"...or do we want to give them the perception that even tho "it exists today, i myself will make sure i don't follow the wrong steps?" I was using my marriage as an example - because I can't relate to other people's marriages, they're not mine. like MQA said: "Bottom line: Keep it in your pants and/or skirt and you have nothing to worry about." |

I want to take this opportunity to say that I have never "fooled around" with any of our FA's on a layover. Heck, I haven't even seen one! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cwm27.gif[/img] What were we talkin' about? Fly freight! That'll solve the problem. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

I was taught at an early age: "Never put your wee-wee in your wallet!" Doug lighten up - I wasn't preaching at you. I was just saying that Delta is not a typical airline. Sheesh. |

I'm sure it is no different to any other job ..... there are people who will and people who won't. I could tell u some stories about teachers away on conferences, and it wouldn't br any different to any other potential story from any other profession. Maybe there was more of that sorta stuff in the 60s/70s, maybe there wasn't. What difference does it really make? I'd bet the %age of affairs/flings happening on airline layovers is no higher than any other profession. I can't be doing with one-nighters anyway - gimme a proper loving relationship that means something. |
