And my daughter’s response is “here’s my supervisor’s information.” They complete reports of interactions. She hasn’t been counseled in the six years she has been flying with them. You would maybe be shocked at the number of passengers who are met by air Marshals or other authorities at the end of those flights. It is a lot more common than people realize. And it is more frequent now since the pandemic. There are logical reasons for the increase in occurrences. But I like it here and don’t want to get banned.

A couple hundred AMs have been redirected South to help with the issue. So it seems there might be fewer on some flights these days the last couple years, unfortunately. Maybe it's not noticable depending on the flight. I suppose some standard flights tend to have more problems than others. Staff and passengers should be and feel safe while flying.

At least what they called me, Marshal(l) Dillon, was a cool TV character. And yes, that is how I got my name. I was born on a late Saturday night. Napoleon would have been better, but that show came later.

Right? It’s like anyone here could walk into corporate and tell them I can run your online store and make you a lot more money from it than you make now. But I prefer them to be freaking clueless. And @GBassNorth, don’t get any ideas. They’re pretty much down the street from you.

I’ve kicked around the idea of approaching Guitar Centers Corporate office down the road to pitch a position for Director of on line used gear sales. But then I remember all the great gems I’ve acquired from their nearly random pricing process and think to myself, why ruin a good thing. Besides, if we want nearly uniform high pricing on used gear we always have Reverb.

When it comes to used gear pricing, GC is essentially the Craig’s List of the corporate world. I like it that way.
