Long Haul crew suffer brain shrinkage

[Magnus Picus]

The media were smug to report that a Bristol University Professor has discovered that Long Haul crew who regularly travel through many time zones, suffer from increased cortisol levels and consequently loss of Short Term Memory as well as brain shrinkage.

Who said we were small minded?

Magnus
are yo aware that this prof. conducted his testing (only) on 20 flight attendants?

Some of this profession are even not aware if they are male or female. So what did you expect? Must be definately related with this kind of operation and the time zones. Therefore company says: "always try to stay in your own timezone"... - Wow, now I understand!(VBG)
