Obviously, PDR is completely right (just as he was in his thread about his daughter's aborted trip to CERN). All of these nasty people who work for these horrible companies spend their days trying to figure out how to get away with not getting off their "lazy backsides" and actually doing some real work...
And as for their terrible employers; well, it's obvious, isn't it? They just love cancelling flights so that they can go to the expense of refunding passengers AND paying them compensation. Much, much better than running a revenue-generating flight so that the company can actually operate at a profit.
