Cigar King Posted November 18, 2017 Author #401 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I get picked up at the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport by Micheal Bailey, don’t you? More often than not the ship just picks me up and drops me off in front of my house. It's kind of like an Uber, accept I don't tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigar King Posted November 18, 2017 Author #402 Share Posted November 18, 2017 What about that box of cigars? I keep those in a special hermetically sealed box on Funk and Wagnall's porch. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domino D Posted November 18, 2017 #404 Share Posted November 18, 2017 OMG that would be special. We could have a welcome back Gold members ceremony for the pinning of the gold status lapel pin. What would the dress code be? I would wear my best ripped t-shirt with old shorts and flip flops. Same outfit I wore at formal night in the MDR two days ago. That would bring a tear to my eye. :'):')Dress code should be recently laundered items. No visible strains. Oh and socks.

Ocean Boy Posted November 18, 2017 #413 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Wait...you allow your driver to sleep? Isn't that grounds for immediate dismissal from the C&A program? He'll never be one of "our kind" of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly the kind of subversive behavior that leads to revolution. Before you know it you'll be sharing a laugh in the hallway and then cats and dogs will start sleeping with each other.

Before you know it you'll be sharing a laugh in the hallway and then cats and dogs will start sleeping with each other. We'll have mass hysteria. We normally ask for the hallway to be cleared before we walk down it. We are often in our complimentary robes and don't like being asked "Where did you get that". I will say the children do enjoy the enhanced towel sculptures. The last fellow made a life size Winston Churchill. The eyes were made of lapel pins. We felt bad emailing corporate that he had touched them without permission. Sent from my SM-G920P using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RN4Nsy Posted November 19, 2017 #425 Share Posted November 19, 2017 This morning when I arrived at work I asked where the D+ priority boarding was. Unfortunately it was a mess and I had to ride in an elevator that was not only for D+ employees. I earned this status, and this started my whole work day off wrong. I'm going to ask for some additional credit as reparations. I did ask to see another employee's ID to see if they were allowed to use the coffee machine. They looked at me funny and refused to show me their ID. I intend to report this when I see the captain. You guys are all making me giggle on a nice Sunday Morning (at work). Yeah, I'm not supposed to be online, oh well. Maybe my status will make my boss not peeved at me? I beat her in Seniority anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
