I don't exactly know which are the parameters my airline has based the Airport symbol, but few months ago they put the Airport (a small GA airfield) where our fleet manager used to fly when he was young ahah

Anyway, here is a funny trick you can use to decide who, between you and your colleague next to you, will perform a certain leg or just to appoint the one who will go out with the pretty flight attendant betting on Even or Odd numbers rotating the DH selector on the EFIS control panel

(this works on the 737 Classic but unsure on the NG, never flown on the latter)

With the DH selector, select a starting Even or Odd number, whichever you elected to bet with your friend. Let's say you bet an Even one.

Select a starting Even number, stop, and then start the bet rotating the selector randomly but quickly. It will always end with an Even number. Same thing starting with an Odd one (it will always end with an odd number).
