yeah, that 1099 deal kinda scared me a bit. I mean pay is 28% , but I will need that other 3 % for taxes.
I am gonna ride it out .... -
1099 is no insurance and no accountability
you would be going backwards

wouldn't it be funny if he actually listened to us....Cranky Yankee Thanks this. -
Lol , yeah .
It's really not gonna make much sense to do that .
I talked to them today again about our schedule because I wanted to know what this week's looks like , and I was told that they have an idea if we all would be into it.
Basically one week I would have Saturday and a few hrs on Friday off , and then the next week I would have 3 days off.
I am kinda liking the sound of that , but everyone has to go for itTall Mike Thanks this. -
Now... about the trip in the plane... IT'S ABSOLUTELY AWFUL!!! Unless I would fly first class... or maybe business class which would cost me at least $ 3,500.00...Delta economy class is extremely uncomfortable, seats are very small, very tight, they don't recline much anything and there's no leg room...
and I just can't sleep at all...
The plane was totally full... no empty seat to try to stretch...
My row was right behind business class...
This time I paid $ 100.00 extra dollars to get some leg room in front of my seat but that didn't help much...
I still couldn't sleep all night long...
BTW, there was some problem with some other aircraft which caused us a 2 hr delay before departure...And I had to devour my 2 lasagnas before plane took off...
There was no overhead light above my seat... I wasn't interested in any movie... So, flight attendant gave me a flash light... kinda weird... very clumsy..
So that I could read my magazines... all night long...
Arriving in Brasilia - Brasil's federal capital...
Got my luggage at luggage claim and proceeded to next air company check-in desk to get my board ticket and gave them my cargo luggage...
At Brasilia international airport, waiting for my next plane to resume my trip to Fortaleza last Wednesday morning...
Had to walk back and forth in the airport looking for my gate...Cause they gave me wrong departure gate...
Had I not wandered around, I would have missed the plane cause there was nobody to give any info...

Continuation...
Boarded on Boing 737-800 and headed to Fortaleza, capital of the state of Ceara, Brasil last Wednesday morning...
A much smaller plane but more comfortable than Delta plane...
That trip took almost 3 hrs... Arrived in Fortaleza in the afternoon and took a cab to the main bus terminal...
At Fortaleza main bus terminal had time only for a very quick snack...
And took the bus to the small town of Hidrolandia about 4:30 hrs away...
Very comfortable bus the smell inside....
Arrived in Hidrolandia at 19:30 local time and my dad and his driver were waiting for me...
His wife had a very nice guest bedroom for me...
I totally collapsed at 21:00 local time and slept for 13 hrs...Last edited: Feb 27, 2015
