I don't consider any of those attributes to be sins, either. And the women who held those jobs did not have guns at their heads when they took them. But just because customers liked it, and employees liked it -- why, Heaven forbid, we could not allow such a dreadful state of affairs to go unchecked.

When are these idiots going to understand that they are part of the reason the airlines are going bankrupt!?
More union rubes who are deceived into destroying their own careers. Sad""

There are still union members in South Bend, Indiana who are waiting for Studebaker to come back and open up.

At Delta, we are going without a raise for 5 years. Maybe we can replace these women with Hooters girls?""

I am self- employed. I am making the same hourly rate today that I put into play Jan 1 of 1989. The area I am in just won't pay any more. For those who expect a "raise" every year, etc, I feel for you, but there are others who have harder problems. Also, I have had no health insurance for over 9 years because the premium went ballistic and I could afford it.

For all of you who miss the flight attendents of days gone by, fly down to India and take a trip on "Kingfisher Airlines" href = "http://www.flykingfisher.com/flyingmodels.htm"

All of their flight attendents are models. Have fun!

Big deal.

Years ago, the vacation began when I got to the airport.

Now, air travel is something that must be endured.

Stewardesses... ahhh.... They were pretty, attentive, and most had a great sense of humor. ("Would everyone please take their seats so the pilot can see to back up.")

Now, most of them look like Nurse Diesel and have the personality of Otto Preminger.

Fly if you gotta, but grit your teeth.
