View Full Version : Don't Poke the Snake;
There seems to be a group of full time agitators within the ranks of you gainfully employed gentlemen. Agitators normaly benefit from a good dose of reality so perhaps these malcontents could try memorising a few easy numbers, ie "89" (ACMS to note ) "49" "60,000,000" "137" and "17 ". Pretty simple stuff but it just might, say again just might help register that it's not smart to poke the snake.

Wow! This should be in the "insanely weird" forum.
Speaking of snakes, did you know there has been an invasive species of snake from Singapore in Hong Kong. Extremely venemous, one bite and your airline loses $20million a month.

WTF?????????:confused:
Ok, I'll take a stab.
89=1989 Pilot's Strike
49=49ers
60,000,000=Managements freighter fine
137=the price of oil???
17=?????
Any other ideas?

I have to get out more. I have lost the plot here.
However it makes more sense than a lot of the other threads.
I know. Common sense like standing together and therefore empowering the AOA
has been poisoned by the snake! So now we are going to confuse ourselves mathematically into a 17% payrise this year!
I just love logic. Its the one thing pilots are so good at.

Actually the best thing to do with a snake is to cut its head off...... but we'll let the US Department of Justice do that for us..........:D:D:D
(Perhaps 17 is the number of times one's sphincter size increases after one week in a US jail....)

Perhaps 17 is the height in feet of a recent CX cross country....

17 years to command sounds about right.:eek:
Actually I think it's more dangerous to play with your Snake.

Well we've done it now, the snake's woken, and bitten;
No more toothpast for staff travellers. The Bean counters have finally figured out where all that profit was disappearing to- those greedy staff hoarding travel kits.
:ugh:
I thought you should never poke a cut snake....

I think you'll find that the 'snakes' will have other things on their minds if the BA experience is anything to go by..... you'll notice that 'duh management' is mysteriously silent on the forum recently.......
