   I wouldn't call 1 wheel missing mutilated. All airlines have the same policy on this. Sometimes you might get a good little man to bend the rules here.
   
   
2. plastic sandwiches and terrible food
   
   Bring your own food. Airlines are world renown for bad food.
   
   
3. continental horrible customer service
   
   not alone in that catagory. Have a look around this site.
   
   
4. being left at the end of the tarmac
   
   No control over that once the airplane is moving, it is being told what to do by government officials.
   
   
5. paying for extra luggage
   
   Again, CO is not alone here.
   
   
6. delayed or cancelled flights
   
   See previous comment
   
   
7. people with too much junk in the trunk
   
   Hardly CO's fault the American public is fat
   
   
8. the hopeless economy
   
   Hardly CO's fault the economy is crap.
   
   
9. cost of living cuts
   
   Didn't we all? I worked for an airline, don't get me started on the cuts I took.
   
   
10. management titles instead of merit raises
    
    See above comment but since you brought it up, at one point in my 20 years, we (IAM union employees) didn't receive a raise for 8 years.
    
    
11. being lucky to get a flight
    
    huh??
    
    
12. people with bombs in their shoes
    
    Didn't happen
    
    
13. people opening emergency exits
    Didn't happen
    
    
14. just being lucky to have a job
    
    I don't so yes, you should be.
    
    
15. not being able to get home from Costa Rica
    
    Huh?? I missed that part.
    

how's life in the city Cyn?
