You're lucky you weren't hurt.

My year is shaping up odd - UA (in F), WN, SkyTeam USA, and OneWorld USA (award) are my first four one-ways ...

I am punishing myself taking a 900 mile RJ....at least in 12A.

I was not in 12A when I flew MEM-PHL to have lunch with you and CM before the Mini-Do. That flight sucked.

When I was coming to pick you up, I was watching the NW mobile site and saw CR2 as the equipment. I thought it was a typo until I saw the look on your face as you exited the terminal to find my car.

And this client's first live payroll is finalized. Checks are ready to print, ACH file has been uploaded to the bank, and we're just about ready to post this to the ledger and call it done. I think I'm going to drink tonight to celebrate this accomplishment. A year ago I didn't know this client of ours even existed and they were a total mess, with a project delayed by 12 months. Since last April I've turned this mess around, have seen them go from being rather angry with us to pretty happy most of the time, and we have now successfully taken their new HR and payroll system live.

Now if only the same will happen with my Louisiana client in April.

no doubt.

i got 12A on every leg booked less than a week out.

I did not pick an exit row on CLE-FLL every seat was full already. looks elite heavy! Back o the bus was empty (739) so I picked a lieflat BF seat while seeing if I can get an upgrade or not.

That's not too horrible. I did MSP-IAH many times on the last flight on Thursdays, which was an ERJ, mostly in 12A. As long as you don't get up and walk around during the flight, it's not too bad. The lack of seat mates and the extra leg room helps out quite a bit.

My longest so far is just over 550 miles, not looking forward to the 900 plus, but hey, it was cheaper than other options which I like for company, and it is more miles.
