Especially when they have just ridden a "completely automatic" train between concourses and seen how frequently they malfunction.

The next money-saving idea will be to "dual-qual" flight attendants as standby pilots. If they go 90 days without a landing, three bounces in the simulator would be required, since safety must not be compromised.
