Kudwa…at AA…to some friends…"Congratulations on winning the lottery. This is the last job you'll every have…." (or something very similar).

Plato Rhyne Jr…at DAL…."We are gonna hire 60 a month….forever!" Lots of folks don't remember that "forever" was July 01, two months before 9/11, when Delta put on a 12 month (later much longer) hiring freeze.

I do think the business models are finally working. I do think the demographics look very, very good for the next decade. But forgive me if I cringe like a dog that has been beaten one too many times when i hear stuff like that said out loud. Let's just keep our heads down and hope this trend continues….
Yeah, Plato should have known about islamic terrorists and put in a disclaimer.
