1 New driver's license-GREAT PICTURE ^
1 Shiny New CO OP Card with drink chits and the lovely stickers
1 shiny new AAA Card-NOTICE THAT IS AAA- not AA nor AARP(of course it's a new number so that d@mn HH site among others will have to have it typed in)

Why do you have a new AAA number -- I've had the same number for many years!:confused:

My DL is up for renewal in April; received new CO OP card (yay, I'm *officially* a Plat, now!;)); have resisted signing up for AARP!:rolleyes: -- I need some convincing that I am not just supporting their lobbying efforts!:rolleyes:

I have been pimping for my friend at CO. She applied for the Media Specialist job and it turns out that she is under qualified because she doesn't know all of the tech stuff they require and over qualified because she has written/reported her own stories on network TV News for the past 20 years. She's even won and Emmy and was nominated for another one. :(

I will say that the HR person I have been bugging has been very nice and helpful. It has been recommended that my friend seek a job in PR. Of course CO has very small PR department and no openings.

So, does anyone know of any job openings in PR? :D

I just shoveled the snow/slush off of my drive and sidewalk so the water can drain and so I don't have a frozen layer under everthing in the morning.

I got my new CO One Pass Elite card. Should I start a new thread?

How much trouble do you expect to get in with your extra time in the city?

You never know unless you ask nicely. I've put people in F on later flights to get volunteers and paid a smaller voucher amount.

I call looking for people willing to take a bump "Let's Make a Deal" sometimes.

Reservations won't do it but the airport agents might.

most likely not!! They will first have to put you on the flight and then bump. if the back is full and you are not already in first it most likely wont work. Although I did have gate shenanigans used to move me from CLE-ORD-IAH with ORD-IAH in first and put on CLE-IAH in first in front of 45 others on the list. I claim displaced FC passenger!!

They finally caught on to the fact that I'm no longer 25 and living with the parent units. My dad had been paying it for years and it was always part of my Christmas. They rubber hosed it out of him and he fessed up this time :D

I sold them off before the "first death".

I have my own account, although I somehow was linked through my parent's account when I started with AAA. Strangely, on my card, I am listed as a 58 year member of the Auto Club, although I am not that old... :eek: That is apparently common with the club here in Southern California.

That would be fine, as long as there was a lovely lass sweeping in front of it (don't tell my GF) :cool:
