I cringe to think how out of shape and slovenly you are that you can't do jepp updates or carry a kit bag. Disgusting.

Every slight and concession we accept lowers the bar further and hurts every other company and pilot. Humans are very selfish by nature I understand that, but that selfishness is what has gotten us in the predicament we're in today.
