You gotta love it when your 34yr coworker with 8 years of experience in your industry calls you freaking out because he doesn’t know how to use a PDF editor to sign something.

You’re not wrong 😂

This is fine. Everything’s fine.

Tell me you use AI without telling me you use AI.

lol at Spot Hero using an incredibly dated photo of Soldier Field

I love suggested routes where you hop on an airway for a single fix. What’s really the point of filing the airway if you’re only on it for a couple miles?

9 dollars….9 dollars for a croissant in the suburbs of Chicago. 9 dollars, for what amounts to fancy looking bread lite with a nut that costs less than $0.50 per ounce.

We’ve lost the fucking plot.

True depression is pulling up the GFS and realizing the 16-day forecast never climbs above freezing even once 🙃

LGA being closed for 7 hours was not on my bingo card, good god!

When you work a hybrid job, being forced to sit in an office after you’ve been done with your work for 4 hours, with zero calls or emails the entire time, is such a waste of time. If I can drive home and still stay on shift and pick up any work that comes in, why am I stuck here?

Any recommendations for meteorologists to follow on here? The bird app is putting fourth the clickbait YouTubers, which is getting frustrating.

At a certain point, you just have to appreciate the effort and money people put into this.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen San Juan this busy before

The absolute meltdown in air travel in the Caribbean between yesterday and today has been one for the ages.

And of course we had a flight that was supposed to fly to Anguilla yesterday.

Having a Facebook account nowadays seems more of a chore than anything else. Especially on a birthday.

The dialog in the new season of Stranger Things is so god awful. Just constant handholding exposition.

It’s wild how much influence the Great Lakes have on winter weather. A cold front can drop temps fast in Chicago, yet SW Michigan stays noticeably milder thanks to Lake Michigan acting like a giant heat reservoir.

Coworker with 7-8 years of experience who’s been in this role at our company for the past 12 months: If I want to initiate a charge on a credit card in our software, do I just click “initiate charge”?

Me: 😀🔫

What’s up with the constant change in font size?

If you say “fellas” while addressing a group of guys, you’re a neck beard. Full stop.

No surprises here

Having worked airport ops at ORD, it never felt like the true impact on the national airspace system was clearly communicated to us. Wild that it’s the first sentence in the national ATC Ops Plan.

This is such an unbelievably dumb question

I actually tried to get in today but was turned off by how long the line was.

With that said, is there a reason they don’t move to Millennium/Grant Park? It seems like it’s outgrown the Daley Plaza.

Christmas in Chicago is such a vibe

I know I’m late to the game, but I will never not love how unserious fixes are

I hate that pictures will never do this town justice

Definitely not the best pics of the area, but some of my personal favorites of the season.

Having had the displeasure of spending 2 weeks down there, I can confirm, Dallas sucks.

Coworker: I bet you feel like a meteorologist looking at METAR’s, TAF’s, and NOTAM’s all the time now that you have a dispatch license?

Me: This is literally your job…
