Pass The Chux Please
Why?
Have you been sick?
People like your wife have turned the domestic operation into a personal fiefdom that is resistant to change.How much leave does she have left to burn.Probably about 240 days.
The "beehives" have ruled the roost for 30 years or more.they have it all their own.I have seen them make younger crew cry.
They will not get their own way this time.No sweetheart deals with the company to shaft someone else to maintain their status quo this time.
Domestic as the name suggests does domestic flying.Different division,different culture(female)different history
Let them deal with their own problems.You know,the problems they created.Nothing lasts forever.Gotta move on someday.
Surely you the toyboy pilot husband can keep her in the manner to which she has become accustomed.
