Supposedly going to be much more tightly regulated going forward in terms of training requirements. Plenty of AI generated news copy out there: see the google.
Funniest story: someone bringing on 2 animals. One to emotionally support the owner, the other animal to emotionally support the other animal.
Reason number #67 that I couldn't be a gate agent...my eyes would fall out of my skull from all the eye rolling.
(If I never have to pick up another doggie doodie in the terminal, I'll retire a happy man. Jebus, people are so fixated on their phones they'll step in anything).

Apparently you’ve already picked up at least one more pile of crap than I ever will.

Yeah, I'll pick it up when I see it in terminals. Uniform or not, I'm not above a few sharp words to the pet owner when I catch up with them, either. (have yet to hand them the napkin with extra filling telling them "you dropped this" though)
Anyhoo, sounds like less of a problem going forward.

No. No I have not.

All kidding aside, I share a similar viewpoint. I sold my Delta stock a decade ago and invested in oil stocks as a way to reduce my employment risk. It's worked reasonably well until demand for both air travel and oil disappeared overnight.
