a. someone like me dumb enough to keep coming back to get kicked in teeth every 5 or 6 years (that's from my Dad), or
b. any airline being that inept without going out of business.
Anybody ever hear of one airline furloughing three times for the same relative seniority group?
Thats easy for them to say that knowing they will never have to make the decision to keep coming back ... In all honesty I love flying and faced with it I would probably keep coming back ... teeth or not. Actually I did go through similar once ... Lucky I guess. Hang in there.
