It's never too early for Champagne.
Should Champagne not be served, any alcoholic beverage will be counted as Champagne. If No Alcoholic beverage is served: Wrong carrier/class. Presently in EZE, drinking Malbec, I cheer you all! Vamos! |

Thanks - so BD is a year from promotion to Gold rather than a calendar year? I've got all my travel for 2009 scheduled now.

Considering I'm in the office (leaving now though), it's a little too early for the Woodford Reserve.

Sure, but I'm not looking to run the State Department, just to be a cog in the machine
Given your level of international travel, Top Secret can become problematic, if for no other reason then they just get tired to trying to get follow-up support from stations abroad. Make sure to check the "clearance" aspects of the jobs you're looking at. If it's just "Secret," it will be order of magnitude easier for you to get it. |

I'm probably not going to say anything you don't know, but if you're looking at jobs that are under the Foreign Service specialist categories (at least some of IT is one of them), then you automatically are going to be screened for Top Secret clearance.

I'll get over it. |

That's what liquor stores are for. Stocking up for home!:D;)
I know that for home but in the restaurant business it is hard to tell a customer from outta town that I cant sell what is on the shelf because of local liqour laws!! |

Whmmm... perhaps so CO napkins with teh logo on them!! :) BTW, do yall start getting recipricol free flights on *A right away? or did yall already have those?? We can travel benefits on most airlines. Some we can receive free passes and others we have to purchase. The purchase fares are called ZED fares and all the airlines use the same formula: $ per miles flown. I'm hoping to see a better rate/deal once the * thing gets going. |
Apparently when I put in for my CR1 upgrades on next weekend's HNL run .bomb decided that I didn't really want the upgrade on EWR-ORD. I just spent 30 minutes on the phone listening to Rhapsody in Blue while they figured it out. On the plus side, the up went through right away. I've now cleared on 4/5 flights. Only ORD-SFO hasn't (mid-morning Friday flight) and I don't really expect it to.
