Oh, joy...how's that for a corny expression?
I called crew scheduling as I always do immediately before leaving for work, which would have meant jumpseating all night to pick up a cargo flight out of Miami. I was informed that my next trip wasn't until the 5th, the regular trip on my bid line. They had neglected to notify me that the cargo flight out of Miami had been cancelled (because of the hurricane?). Anyway, I didn't ask why, argue or remonstrate them for their lapse of memory. I just quickly hung up. Sometimes the breaks do go your way.
Have fun, everyone, I am...Terry
