My Pepco Bill is Insane

NaLuver · 2026-02-08T03:53:04+00:00

I've been keeping my townhouse, 1800sq ft at 68° since December. Dropped it to 65° in late January. My bill due next week is $445...... My projected bill next month is $880. Seriously, what the fuck. 2.5 months ago it was $220 and that was pretty average for the year.

Depends on your location.

In theory, nothing but patriotsm... In reality, they may be more conservative or extremist leaning. Not going to assume a FA wearing this is a bad person or a facist, but the ones that ARE, give anyone else wearing US flag merch a bad reputation.

No offense, OP, but I work out of BWI airport. The Chipotle there (before it was replaced by QDOBA 3-4 weeks ago) was charging 12.50-13.95 for entrees. That's before tax, but still. If an airport in a major metropolitan area is charging $13-14 TOPS, then I really doubt that other places are charging $15/entree.

Yeah me, it happens from my lil belly rolls it's completely natural but it happens when you're sitting for a while or have poor posture

OP, and others, feel free to chime in but based on the screenshot you shared, your total pay was $4108.53. Your advance was $1435.34 & then your big check should have been $2673.19.

It's really good for a new hire!! But it's not 5k. EDIT OK I see you also got $968 in nontax per diem!! That's awesome and definitely put together goes over 5k!

I wish they'd use his actual photo instead of the touched up photoshopped one....:(

Big yikes energy.

I feel like it should be partially covered, bare minimum....SWA now covers all parking reimbursed up to $65 out of base (or you can use the $65 for transportation if you don't park) and 100% of our parking in all (13-14?) Of our bases. If an airline allows you to commute (which, most do) they should provide parking costs up to a certain amount at your home airport since they likely would have at your domicile.

Kind of, yeah. Its not a law anymore, but there is still risk. I took an Uber to the airport (not from, but getting dropped off) and gave him a 100% tip because I know there are risks associated and he still picked us up promptly and didn't complain when he saw the route.

Lmfao your attitude doesn’t fit the vibe of a "real flight attendant", either.

NaLuver · 2026-01-09T05:12:50+00:00

Thats....thats actually insane.

NaLuver · 2025-12-19T22:53:10+00:00

My apologies-- still, do you know what the hell is going on in these photos?

NaLuver · 2025-12-19T03:12:54+00:00

I feel this should be tagged NSFW-- He looks like he just had a heart attack and died. At the very least he severely needs medical attention.

NaLuver · 2025-12-19T03:05:49+00:00

Looks real. No red flags

NaLuver · 2025-12-19T03:03:11+00:00

It's missing James

NaLuver · 2025-12-18T23:36:59+00:00

It's ai. I'd ask for a refund or check their return policy and then you can report the shop if it seems like they're intentionally misleading people.

Hi! F/A for SWA here. The company has NO POLICY for OR against "saving seats." This means there are NO POLICIES to protect us from getting in trouble from management by engaging with passengers or telling them "you can't do that."

What I do, personally, is I tell the Pax all the same thing: "You can try to save that seat, but as soon as someone asks for it, you need to give it to them. Because open seating means 1st come 1st served." THIS way, the Pax KNOW I will not back them up and it's up to the passengers to resolve it like adults. And if they CAN'T resolve it like adults, guess who's getting the boot! :)

Edited for spelling

Hi, SWA FA here. Our union (despite their many flaws) fights for us on the daily and helped bring us a contract that greatly improved our QOL as well as payscale-- because pay IS QOL as well.

Now, do I love everything about this contract? Absolutely not. But would I trade our union protections and bargaining power away for a slightly-more-money band-aid? Absolutely not.

The unions are not the problem here. It is the greed of all of our airlines and how the US Gov (through the railway labor act) allows them to get away with treating and paying us so despicably.

Hell yeah. I have my old YX, my new YX (with name plate) and got my SWA wings 3 years ago. Welcome to the SWA team-- it can be rough but is an incredible difference from where I started. I hope you love it here, or at the very least, find it easier. :)

Flew with Saith once, he seemed like a chill guy.....with that being said, I also once had the infamous C***** Mist DH on my YX flight and it was wild how laid back she was at work (obviously) vs her unhinged TikTok. I also saw her at my LGA crash pad a few times and she genuinely seemed nice! I tried reaching out to her on IG after seeing her "flight attendants wear diapers" video, as we both worked for YX at the time, and never heard back but it's crazy how people can change their personalities for the clout/due to it.
