I'm leaving on a jet plane....

Time to go back to work. Yes in 11 days I will start part time flying again. It goes by so fast, actually 2 weeks early. I went back early so I could bid for the whole month. If not I would be on reserve and we don't like reserve.
So I got my schedule today, that it what prompted this post. On the 1st,2nd,3rd. I do a night trips or what we call them stand up's, you don't get much sleep. The nice thing about stand ups the kids hardly know I left. I get to the airport about 8:00 or 8:30 pm and then back in the morning about 8:00 am.


I do two more trips between the 5th and the 15th and don't have any trips between the 15th and the 30th, it was kind of weird, I usually just do one trip a week, but it packed 3 into one week and then the second half of the month off.
The pro to working part time flying, it is a mini vacation, I get to sleep in a hotel (not interrupted for 5-6 hours) which is better than what is happening now. I also get to fly with, a lot of my friends. Nice adult conversation in the friendly skies.
So I tried my uniform on today and it is okay, not loose like I was hoping, (Stacy S., looks like I will be training for that 5K as well :)
So if you are off to Spokane, Missoula, Oakland, Austin, Pasco or Billings let me know I will save you a seat.
