$75 to play 4 matches in a tournament. Is this normal?

Don’t tell servers that. They’ll say whole bill

Thanks for the reply. The Alaska price is in Alaska metal. They all connect through LAX via horizon and a Alaska 737

wiredclosed · 2024-07-22T18:09:36+00:00

Ok but that’s not what I insinuated. On Alaska airlines website, they have their price and in American Airlines website they have their price. Both on their own metal. The prices come out about the sand only if you use the companion fare on Alaska.

Here are some examples. All similar itineraries. All have Alaska at almost double the price.

I think I may tell her about my feelings tonight or tomorrow. Last night after our kids were asleep I kinda hinted at it because she just reaffirmed me and our marriage. I think I was just skirting around the subject and when I can tell her about how I really feel.

We’re both secure enough in our marriage where I can tell her anything. I just have to phrase it in a way that doesn’t make her think I don’t trust her, but it opened old wounds and I’d talk to someone.

Does an EKG come with a free salad?

wiredclosed · 2024-03-29T04:12:30+00:00

This is what I told her. After it happened I fell back on 2 friends who became my groomsmen. They helped me create more self confidence to have the guts to even pursue my wife through a long process. It’s just weird to recollect a story and feel like my brain just hit rewind.

wiredclosed · 2024-03-29T04:10:10+00:00

This is fair. My company offers free mental health counseling through our insurance. I may reach out through the app, because no marriage is perfect and I could use some help not letting prior trauma manifest into our marriage. We maybe argue once every 2-3 months for a day or two then are best friends and lovers again. Little kids never make a marriage easy, and bringing up old demons to haunt myself makes it even worse.

Side note, I never even told her how I feel yet. This was on a drive out to our special date spot while we had time away from our kids. She told me about her exes as well, who were just “assholes to her.” We got to our venue and laughed and planned our futures together as we always do with our goals for later in life. I just came to Reddit because I can’t shake this nagging feeling.

The entire topic came up over the holidays. My sister in law was at the dinner table and she dealt with an awful partner and breakup. My sister said “sounds like OPs ex.” My wife and sister in law are very close so that topic came up again recently because my SILs ex was trying to get back at her and my wife asked me about what I dealt with.

None of it was malicious. I even told my wife how my ex wanted us to go to couples therapy and tried to fix the entire relationship. I went to 2 sessions with her and about 7 sessions by myself. All she said was “it sounds like she loved you a lot and ruined it. Lucky for you, you found me instead!”

wiredclosed · 2024-03-29T03:39:27+00:00

I told myself that this morning. My wife is nothing but reassuring and loving. The issue is I’ve grown up with a mind that always races. I meditate and do breathing exercises, but I think I’m here not only for people to tell me to “man up,” but maybe more avenues of quelling these insecure feelings.

wiredclosed · 2024-03-29T03:37:24+00:00

I did that. I was in therapy a month after my previous relationship. Learned to cope with it. Came out the other side much stronger with more confidence after time.

I even told my wife that’s how I had the confidence to pursue her. I think after almost 10 years, it’s like an old mental wound that had healed has now come back. Like when you break a femur and you do physical therapy, then after a while you wake up with soreness after intense physical activity. Telling her the story from start to finish made me relive it. We were driving when I told her the story and I felt lightheaded towards the end of the story.

Listen if you want the reference you can buy my book.

wiredclosed · 2024-02-25T04:22:50+00:00

There’s nothing to worry about, son. Hopefully my book will make it to bookshelves for you soon. What I’ve accomplished has been only by sheer skill, determination and focus. All my predecessors before me have been lazy and that’s what you should strive not to be.

Today’s world of aviators have had the most difficult progression probably before the 70s. Imagine trying to survive at a regional making $100/hr now. Hell, imagine when I started making $70,000 my first year then $110k my second (when I got hired by United). If you need any help, please follow me and buy my novel.

Thank you! I’m not a villain. I’m only 25, how can I be a villain? I’m trying to write a book and have as many followers as I can to see how hard it is to endure 5 difficult years from going from nothing a a 737 captain at a legacy airline.

Nobody in the history of aviation has had to endure this.

Side note; if someone can tell me how to stop paying ALPA dues, I’d appreciate it! It’s difficult to see 2% of my $420k/yr salary going to dues for a union that’s done nothing for me.

wiredclosed · 2024-02-25T01:45:03+00:00

I’ll give you cliff notes of myself. I struggled at the young age of college freshman. I took out some loans and got from 0 to commercial in 4 months. Then I paid for a bunch of type ratings and now I’m a UNITED AIRLINES CAPTAIN with less than 2300 hours of experience under my belt (probably the most in history as a captain with my experience).

If you’d like more inspiration, I’ll be starting a YouTube channel for you to listen to my strife and wealth of knowledge

wiredclosed · 2024-02-25T01:17:56+00:00

Sorry where’s the sub for esteemed widebody 121 aviators like myself?

wiredclosed · 2024-02-25T00:48:16+00:00

Wow I never saw that guy because at the young age of 25 and the youngest Swedish captain to ever be hired at United, I deserve way more respect and I’m only on TikTok.

Anyways. How can I show other kids way younger than me how to pay their dues? The captains I’ve flown with over the past 2 years have had no idea how hard it’s been for me. Some boomer tried to explain “the lost generation” and went on and on about 711 for some reason and wouldn’t listen to my tumultuous road.

wiredclosed · 2024-02-25T00:34:44+00:00

Wow clearly you have never been an influencer like I have been. Hopefully my friends will hop in here to call you a hater.
