I mention these only to stir an already bubbling pot:
1. bmi (who kindly pay my mortgage) have the inestimable advantages of i.) not having been on the ropes before Sept. 11th, and ii) having management with at least the sense not to do anything precipitate, as others would seem to have.
2. bmi and Virgin have been to 'final negotiations' twice in the past re: merger/takeover. I reckon at least one of us might be going cheap soon, and it won't be the blue one.
Meantime, all the very best to all colleagues who have lost their jobs or are worried sick about keeping them.
You haven't seen me, right?
