I do get $150 in extra compensation for sitting in the office all day tomorrow - officially not on contract but I'm doing advising (and can get writing done). Not a bad deal.

You might be a troll, but they are nuts. That thread is like trying to reason with a 2 yr old or a cat. :rolleyes: I thought about posting more in that thread but decided that it was a total waste of time. :D

I don't think he's trolling. I think that the diehards over there refuse any assertion that UA is not at the top of the pile. The line that he keeps repeating is true in the context of that survey, and they are just not getting it that someone out there can think that UA sucks. It's unfathomable to them.

$5 off Jiffy Lube coupon secured; now off to hunt for lunch, to the oil change joint, and to come up with something for us to do tonight. I was asked to plan a date night. I'm kind of out of practice at this.

I don't use BP purely on advice from the mechanics at my VW dealer. Sunoco or Shell are the suggested brands.

Bank Hotel
Hudson Hotel Ibis Tailors Hall Missoni Mercure All have made the first cut. I am vaguely considering the HH, too, but leaning away from it based on it being much closer to $250/night than $160/night like the others. I also have the 2000 Accor points that can be redeemed at the Ibis or Mercure. |

Bank Hotel, all the way. I used to live around the corner from it. It's built on top of Logie Baird's Pub (named after the Scottish co-inventor of TV), which is a nice place for a morning pint, with decent pub grub. It is also right around the corner from The Cowgate, and about as central as you can be in Old Town. You will be nearly equidistant from the main train station, airport express bus stop, castle, new town, arthur's seat, and calton hill.

I'd agree that UA's not at the top of the pile, but I'd also say that being the #1 domestic carrier in any kind of perception survey isn't worth a whole lot. Kind of like being the skinniest kid at fat camp - you're still fat. Perception of quality != actual quality. Joe Suburbanite thinks that Starbucks has good coffee, yet if you take away the branding and serve it next to McDonald's coffee in a plain styrofoam cup, Joe picks McD's, 60/40. Joe actually picks Maxwell House over SBUX, even. That, and any survey that doesn't have US at the bottom is wrong by definition. |
