People are such bloody sheep
The world is in fundamentally the same economic shape as it was a fortnight ago if you think about it. Without demeaning the scale of the crime, all that has happened is that a few dozen fundamentalist w@nkers from an insignificant backwater Islamic nation have carried out an act of terrorism and a small and targeted military operation may need to be launched by the USA in order to bring the culprits to justice.
The Israelis have been having to deal with these kind of manic suicidal terrorist scum for decades, and they're as strong and economically sound today as they've ever been. As soon as America becomes a target it's world war bloody 3 though
The fact that this one act by this handful of insignificant religious nutters is now looking like costing many billions of dollars, hundreds of thousands of jobs and plunging the entire world into financial meltdown is just bizarre to me. Don't you just want to reach out, grab the consumers by the scruff of the neck and tell them to get a grip?
I say keep on learning to fly just on general principle, and two fingers to the
pr!cks who want to make their political statement by attacking our industry. Life's too short, and airline economics are too bizarre, to risk not being around and fully qualified when the next hiring boom arrives ... it might be in 10 years or it might be in 3 months, nobody really knows do they?
Keep your chins up people, and for God's sake spread a bit of positivity to everyone else you meet - the world will return to normal soon enough. See you in a flight deck
soon
