Correct. This is SOP, but YMMV with order takers (especially SDs who personally take orders). Some go "by the book" meaning a S100K ML*1 will be asked near last, and some "acknowledge" the status regardless of ML*1 and still ask us ML*1'd SEs first. I have had both situations happen to me. In most cases, I am familiar with several SDs and their style so I know what to expect.

(For those who are wondering, I fly TATL/TPAC out the wazoo so much so that I now see familiar FAs and SDs 75% of the time)
