I've seen the effects of nitrox on Jenn and she's goofy enough without it ETA- Whoops. Thought you meant N2O. I mean, yes, oxygen does make Jenn goofy. So does no oxygen. So does N2O. N2O REALLY makes me goofy, though. Isn't that right, Batman? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pjchis 0 #303 December 22, 2005 Hey Jenn, where are you from? And what are you doing for SkyVenture Colorado? I think all of us working there should coordinate who is bringing Mary her starbucks for each given day so that way we don't all bring her white chocolate mochas at the same time. Might look suspicious. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have all the answers, as we haven't done any operations yet, but the aim for us is to fire up the tunnel in 1/2 hour blocks. If there was a group of 15 fliers that wanted to share 15 minutes and then I had another group of people that wanted to share 15 minutes, I'd be booking them in the same 1/2 block time.
