 Holy Cow we have schedules! It took a few minutes and several postings 
on fb to find it. Then it was a few more minutes to understand it. Did they 
cover this in training? I don't even know what half this stuff means. 
But I have figured out that the blue numbers are the weekends and I seem to be 
working every one. Even Mother's Day ;-/. 
I wonder if I can get a SFO on Saturday night? 
The days off are listed as off. That was fairly simple. 
I've also realized my schedule is parallel with my friend Sharlene! Hurray!
We've decided to request airport alert (standby) on the 11th. 
Perhaps if we're lucky we will go on  a trip together.  
It's always good to have a friend during a new adventure. 
Especially because  we have a zillion questions! 
For instance, where do we put our luggage? How do we print our pairings (ID's)?
I know all this will be clear in the next 48 hours.... 
But in the meantime I'm still wondering where is my suitcase? Who has it? Will my 
Current inflight shoes pass muster? Where the hell is my suitcase? My manual is in there....
will they have a loaner for me? Gee there is no IBS, where do we find the flight info? 
 My wings... their in my suitcase also. Even the door arming procedures are different.
Dear God, please give me a kind, understanding crew.  
Where in God's creation is my suitcase?
