SLC?

Guess I am! To SLC it is...I'm standing by the gate lol

That could be a significant in-flight problem.

Lol more delay...I'm going up for drinks at the Sky Club if you're keen

Had a broken windscreen once - figured I'd let them fix that one

😢

I don't have lounge access 😂😂😂

Ahh sorry. We could've grabbed a beer at the bar next to the gate lol. But BOARDING. More alcohol....

Good luck guys. Hope they didn't half-ass the repair

They switched planes! Else they wouldn't be able to so quickly

As you board, ask the pilot to check Te windscreen...

Well I didn't. So it's been good talking to you FB fam.

Flaps aren't required for flight. The landing will be more difficult but it's not like losing power to the engines.

Still moving bags! Don't leave mine behind. (Yes I checked a bag for the long weekend...alt travel)

From the captain: "sorry for the delay, it was one of those unusual things that happen. There was a maintenance issue with the other plane. We discovered it during our pre flight check and threatened to fall off during flight...thanks for your patience"

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co. I'm US based and my salary is around $250k (NYC) -I've been asked my expectation without the startup giving me a range to work from (though I've asked). I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?
