The process for this began some time ago, but without the words Road Warrior Training.
Who told you about it?
It is one of many ideas that pop into my head on occasion. Guess being mindless affords me more room inside my skull for this to happen.
I vote against your idea, if only to avoid the traumatic sight of Delta Air Lines personnel forcing you to remove that shirt off of your person every time before you board the aircraft of an international flight...

Well, both Waffle House and Chick-Fil-A were both "founded" in ATL. Therefore since we have very little to offer you at the Delta Air Lines event, I would suggest that you consider the following:
Friday:
Chick-Fil-A Day - the first Chick-Fil-A (Dwarf House) was actually in Hapeville, GA, which is a town that is a direct neighbor to the ATL airport.

I thought this was your normal t-shirt

You know, I think we need to re-title the volunteers.
- "Event Organizer" should become "Pilot" and "First Officer"
- "Chief of Volunteer Staff" should be "Your Supervisor"
- "Technology Leader" should be "PNR Manager"
- "Registration" should be "Lounge Dragon"
- "Tour Leaders" should be "Tour Attendants"
- "Venue Captains" works as is
- flyzabit Hospitality and Sponsorships - "Revenue Management"
- DiverDave Hotel Accommodations - "IROPS"
- bwc175 Signs, Badges, Printing Logistics - "Brand Management"
- longing4piedmont Photography - "TSA Agent"

Well, the Waffle House (WH) corporate office is located in Norcross, GA and the Museum is located in Decatur, GA. Both are about 30 min. drive from the airport.
I had to laugh... I was reading an article today and it mentioned the (WH), and I thought wow, the Waffle House is in the news. It was actually referring to the WHITE HOUSE.
Now, the original Chick-Fil-A, known as the Dwarf Grill and later and currently know as the Dwarf House is located in Hapeville, GA and is only a 5 min. drive from the airport.
Great minds think alike...Canarsie is right, we already had a very similar design in the works. It was actually scoow's idea if I recall correctly.
But wait, that's not all ... stay tuned for more cool ideas.
Hmmm... We need a GIDS system for the waitlist. The system only asks for your e-mail address, so if you send me a PM with your e-mail address I can let you know where you are on the waitlist. Sorry, this is a first come first serve waitlist, there are no FT elite status upgrades.
Funny you should mention this, I was speaking with Canarsie earlier today and mentioned that I just got my updated FAA Airman's certificate (aka Private Pilot's License) in the mail on Friday. I am now working on my Instrument rating.
Service Excellence is a better description...

We were planning to give them out at the on-site registration. Shipping the shirts out in advance might be an expensive and a difficult undertaking. I will tell you this, they are top quality shirts, and not just your average t-shirt.

I doubt Z inventory will become available. Shenanigans combined with best-in-class enhancements will result in DL employees receiving your upgrade and any "excess" inventory.
