@Albertsons @kroger if @Costco can figure out how to accept a military for alcohol sales. Maybe it’s time for you to figure it out. Maybe figure out why I need to ID for non alcoholic beer as well? #antimilitary #ignorance

@MCCCANM Flew into ORD in the C141 Comm out, with Clinton’s Limos… that was fun…

@TheKelseyMcR If your mom is a Senior, contact your DA, they love going after contractors for Senior abuse.

UA1257 SNA-DEN Today March 30th. Melissa T. was probably one of the best FAs I’ve experienced in years. Spring break crowd, lots of baggage. She handled it with grace, calmness, directive… but kind. Amazing. #Premier1k @united #flightattendants #travel #kudos #cheers

Flying to Seattle to see family. Second flight, my shoulder is on fire. Asked a fellow passenger to help put my suitcase in the overhead. Navy guy, good lord I miss the military brotherhood. We chatted, I’m in good hands. #thanksbrothers #airforce #navy #happybrokenguy

People should be required to get a Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit (RR) before they can activate the speaker phone part of their cellphone… just sayin’… #airplanes #frequentflier #ugh #humanity

NEVER take your car to the dealer unless it’s a warranty issue. My 9 year old BMW diesel in for an emissions issue. Twice in the last few weeks. New brake pads are 8mm, they said change them at 5mm. (60% life left) Few weeks later, front ones grew a few mm. #shady @BMW @BMWUSA

As I eat my crew meal in my hotel room at 9pm after a 13 hour duty day….

This generation is completely doomed. They can't even hold a 9-5 job without having a mental breakdown. https://t.co/EPHLAPScN7

Ugh, I hastily booked this flight. #sendhelp #crj200 @SkyWestAirlines #retirethemalready

@MCCCANM @thedapperdanmtg @davidhogg111 As a weekly traveler, I enjoy the perks of economy plus etc. I avoid the low cost carriers at all cost… fact is ya get what you pay for. A new 737 Max costs over $120 million dollars. But the public wants cheap airfare… https://t.co/HwAtUDOn7W

Roughly 145 flights on the board at @united ORD… 109ish of them canceled or delayed. Mine kept ticking up in 20 minute increments. No crew. Not just the weather folks! Pilot shortage is real! #pilotshortage #travel

Trying to understand… my flight crew checked into a #Courtyard last night. CSR wouldn’t accept his crew badge as ID. Fine. Had to be a DL because of the address on it. I asked if I could use my military ID, was told no. @Marriott #antimilitary #discrimination #militaryhate

[the jaybird @Jaybird_141]

This morning asked about it, they said I could use a passport because it has an addresss on it…. I questioned that…. He was a “bouncer” at a bar, he “knew”. Wrong. They don’t… what about people that don’t have a DL? #idiocracy #ignorance #racistmuch #seriously #militaryhaters

[the jaybird @Jaybird_141]

@MCCCANM @AllenShrugged Yup! Was looking at a possible Santa Barbara job… ran some numbers. Interest rates plus extreme price hikes in the past two years…. Sad. But the market is ‘cooling’…

[the jaybird @Jaybird_141]

@MCCCANM The weed smell over the past few years too. Ugh.

[the jaybird @Jaybird_141]

I got tired of the green tags, so I laminated one. Been traveling with it for over a year. Never been an issue until today. Gate agent made me take it off and get a new one… why? Makes no sense. @FlyCommuteAir @united #pleaseexplain #premier1k #iflyweekly

[the jaybird @Jaybird_141]

@MCCCANM Haha

I was in France, fall 2020. Kids were in school… laughing, playing, having fun. Sure most were wearing masks, but they were IN school. Mine were depressed behind a screen in California. We will never recover from the damage that the ‘pandemic’ did to a whole generation of kids.

@latimes Europe reopened a lot of schools by May of 2020. Don’t recall it being worse there.
