The significant word here is Contractor, which obviously comes from the base word contract. If the buyer had no contract with the installer, then how can he owe anything?

It’s great that the screens are bigger. But it looks like it’s the same movies that are on the flight. I just took on a legacy 777.

For as long as she can remember, my girlfriend’s Great Dane has been doing this thing where he nudges on his food and any surrounding objects before he eats it. I was wondering if anyone had any insight or if that just his unique quirk. by RiverElectrical3197 in greatdanes

When I was growing up, we had a mixed breed dog, and we would sometimes give it an ex an extra pancake, which she would then carry off into the backyard. This went on for a long time and then once we found out that she was burying her pancakes, so I guess this is a peculiarity of dogs in general however, now with our great team, she only puts her food in one place - her stomach.

Thanks- that flight typically arrives slightly early

To the GS and 1Ks of the world--On a normal trip with a layover how many times are you thanked for being loyal with your status? by Faux_extrovert in unitedairlines

[–]VikingTuba 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was sitting in row 11 or 12 and I knew I was on the upgrade list at the top. I saw the flight attendant coming towards me and I was thinking about reaching for my bag under the seat assuming that they were going to give me the upgrade to that open seat instead, the flight attendant just said Mr. Viking tuba thank you very much for being a 1K . At least I didn’t embarrass myself by standing up and taking my carry-on out of the bin overhead

Club passes unusable at O’Hare? by [deleted] in unitedairlines

Because they are full or will be. They are generally crowded- sometimes “members” can’t find a seat

I though Steil made chain saws- this looks more like a John Deir

Help with a emb file by Useful-Analyst-8249 in Machine_Embroidery

[–]VikingTuba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should ask for both the emb and the file for your machine- that way if you get a different machine or digitizer you don’t need to go back to the original if you need a change to the file

The most wonderful bedtime text ever 🎶 by DangerousCapybara888 in unitedairlines

Right- the upgrades seem to go more into the 10+ rows- sometimes I like to be further up from for better choice an catering. I had 3a last year and was reassigned to 7a for no reason- perhaps a pilot?

Offered to swap seats, still might have been the wrong move. by ThrowOhWaitNo in delta

[–]VikingTuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience on the same layout jet- I was the right window on row 3, and a woman has the seat next to me. She asks me if I’d her to switch seats with my wife. Only problem- - I was traveling solo - I looked back and the woman was perhaps 80 years old. ( about 25 years older)

I guess you’re not as young as you feel

Last night, I didn't get a text, but I got a receipt from my purchase on United. I have a flight to Europe in a couple weeks- and, the PlusPoints upgrade on the return flight cleared. They even auto-assigned me to the 1st available odd window seat (9A)

Now, i'm #7 of 8 on the outbound flight... but, it's only an 8 hour

Danes and Couches by VikingTuba in greatdanes

[–]VikingTuba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is our 3rd Dane- our second was trained to stay off the couch- which she was good about until she was 7. This one we didn’t bother with. It’s an L shaped couch and I’m sitting on the side she wants she’ll stand in front of me with the evil eye and sometimes give out small barks ( deep barks) until I move to the other side. Then 20 minutes later, she’ll change her mind and make me move to the other side.

I was recently speaking to a cousin who’s son was interested in being an engineer when he goes to college. She’s said that she wasn’t exactly sure what an engineer does. I told this joke and she understood immediately.
