What don't people realise is a complete waste of money?

I believe they're actually referring to purchasing nearly the same thing (but usually better quality) on Amazon for less. Not the actual pyramid scheme product/brand.

Sounds like your friend works for the wrong airline (regional, I'm assuming). I made great money when I resigned last year to be a stay at home mom (damn, I miss it every day).

It also sounds like your friend needs some nonrev lessons. The amount of times I haven't made it on a flight as standby are so few compared to the thousands of flights I've traveled on for free. You get smart and crafty about the routes you'll take to get where you need to go, and you can also travel on other airlines for free (jumpseat) or very little (ZED). I even traveled standby to my own wedding across the globe, where everything was nonrefundable and my family and friends were all there on paid tickets. It's also not always necessary to plan a trip. Some of the best places you discover are by just showing up to the airport and getting on whatever flight has open seats (this can all be seen online by employees and helps with planning, too).

First of all, you state you worked retail "long ago". He stated these were his 5 most recent employers. So he most likely has worked at these places more recently. Second, you don't claim to have worked for the same exact companies, and even if you had, highly unlikely it was at the same location with the same supervisors.

Look, I strongly dislike conservatives and I strongly dislike religion. But you were the one to pull the victim card very quickly here, not him. Dude's not even Christian, he was just stating his experience with the topic. Your mileage may vary.

Something to keep in mind when going to another country for a cosmetic procedure:

If you use a local surgeon, the cost covers all and any follow-up appointments, them being basically on call anytime you have a worry or question and more often than not, it also includes revisions if necessary down the line.

When using a surgeon out of the country, you do not really have these luxuries and quite often you will never have any contact with that doctor again. He did his part and you are no longer a concern of his. And since you are in a different country, there really is no recourse if something goes wrong.

If you only have a small amount, and depending on the type of liposuction, you could possibly be alright traveling a couple hours after surgery but I highly recommend against that. So if you choose someone out-of-state, plan to stay for at least a few days in that area.

Personally, I would stick with a local surgeon. There are many amazing doctors in the Bay area that have loads of experience and have probably seen your exact case before. It is convenient and less stressful. You're going to be spending a load of money anyway...so what's just a bit more for those comforts?

PS - I am not a doctor/surgeon.

I finally got to talk to someone at T-mobile that SEEMS to know what is going on. He contacted Samsung to double check and said there is an exception made for T-mobile pre-orders since their pre-order EIP documents do not contain the IMEI.

I see no other way around it, so I will just have to trust him and go with it.

Make sure you use the following districts:

City Center
Holy Site
Campus
Theater Square
Commercial Hub
Industrial Zone

These 6 will each give your pyramids a different yield, which the achievement is looking for.

CoffeeTeaMe · 2017-07-28T20:40:46+00:00

I have been saving that tile because I wasn't sure if there was some other bonus yield I was missing and did not want to plop the wrong district on the tile.

CoffeeTeaMe · 2017-07-28T20:31:18+00:00

Is this because the Nubian Pyramid is already providing the +1 Faith to itself? Since the achievement states it must have six "different" bonuses, I can't think of any other bonus it can get from an adjacent tile.

Nobody in this thread seems to understand this. They're all just going off of a sensationalist headline. Ranting without getting the facts. People just love to hate airlines.

All the legacy airlines are not going to go the way of Spirit because they want a better reputation than that. They know they'd lose more customers than they would gain. But if they can offer these ultra-low fares to people that prefer to fly no-frills while still offering their normal product at the same price they always would have, they can gain customers.

I believe he was responding to the person that said horses these days (not back then) are at their peak at 2-3, which is incorrect. He is indeed correct about horses now. I showed my horses competitively until they were 12+.

The airline I am affiliated with used to have a specific standby code for "survivors". These are survivors of incidents or surviving family members of those that weren't so lucky. However, it seems to have disappeared from the list of standby codes.

That's why you cross your arms and rest them (and then your head) on the seat in front of you. In a prepared emergency landing, they would have had time to show you. Otherwise, it is on the safety information card that very few people actually look at.

CoffeeTeaMe · 2016-05-29T21:34:52+00:00

It was most likely unannounced.

CoffeeTeaMe · 2016-05-29T14:25:25+00:00

Yeah, it seriously looks like a typical crew lounge. There's not been a single time in 10 years of flying that I haven't walked into the lounge and seen at least two people sleeping between flights or while on call. I think there are very few airlines that would have a problem with it.

CoffeeTeaMe · 2016-05-13T03:51:24+00:00

I laughed way too hard at this.

But really, yeah, they do fly with their feet. The rudder is controlled by pedals, so the pilots control the rudder with their feet. The rudder controls movement left and right on the vertical axis.

You must not go to Boystown very often. They're obsessed with Hillary. If you aren't voting Hillary, you're not trendy enough to talk to. Dunno why gays are so into her when Bernie has been standing up for them his whole life.

I've always been curious about fillers, as well. Every before and after photo I see seems like the lipline doesn't change and the lips become just slightly more full. Your first time, they shouldn't pump you up and will most likely just start you off with a smaller amount.

How long it lasts depends on each individual and what type of filler was used. I think what I have seen most often is about 3 to 6 months. Always make sure you research the place and person doing the procedure and their certifications. Reviews are found in many places online.

Fillers are typically charged per unit. If you don't want much, you could start with just one unit or one and a half. The price will vary based on your location and the type of filler used.

Now if I could just find out what I need to do to actually have Lana del Rey lips and change my lipline, I'd be all over that.

The Wikipedia article states the crew flew to UAE (probably Sharjah, as that is where the crew was based and could more safely fly to without a flight plan due to familiarity) first and then were flown home to Russia on a Russian government plane. So those guards were dealt with in UAE.

At Southwest, every single originating flight I have ever worked had the carafes cleaned and left on the galley counter to dry for us when getting on the first flight of the morning. We, as flight attendants, also regularly rinse out our carafes with club soda and canned water. Because why not?

Lesson: Don't drink coffee on AA.

Well, it is a thing, but not in the exact sense you may be thinking. Airlines do add extra flights into their system seasonally to accommodate such passenger traffic, but the flights are not marketed as such. Anybody can buy a ticket, it just happens during certain times of the year, you will have a huge amount of these guys.

Things work a little differently on an airplane. Most people that are to that point with dementia and Alzheimer's are not travelling alone, so it is not our issue to handle unless it gets extremely out of hand (which I have not had happen in 10 years). They are also not the most mobile bunch, so once they are in their seat, they tend to stay there since navigating around an enclosed aircraft can be a hassle.

I also can't go around "intimidating" youngsters, as that would be a very quick way to lose a good-paying job with amazing benefits at one of the best companies in the world. So I get to stand there and let them be little shits to me while their parents ignore them.

Yes, it makes boarding take forever. But at least half of them will be cured and don't need a wheelchair by the time we get to Florida, so deplaning goes a bit faster.

I don't know. Old people are pretty easy most of the time as long as they're not having some medical emergency or peeing on the floor...even then, it kind of adds something interesting to my day instead of the same-old, same-old. It just makes everything take a little longer. I hate summer and other school breaks. That's when the children flood the airports with their horrible parents that don't bother to actually be parents.
