That is why many corporations find ways to force out older employees without triggering age discrimination lawsuits. Many have their own insurance programs for health and life that are administered by outside insurance companies. It is a profit center for the company. But, older employees hit the health and life insurance profits so companies have ways of getting rid of older workers....

“...the airline played ukulele music”

Sounds like they were looking to ‘delete’ some staff.

I will say one thing about Hawaiian Airlines - their stewardess’s look a LOT MORE like those from Asian carriers, rather than the union hags we get in the US.

I enjoyed flying better when flight attendants didn’t die of old age, or weren’t homo men.

I am shocked that the airline had such a young woman on a primo route like that. At least Honolulu end of it was primo, NYC not so much.

Back when i used to fly a lot more, the difference in stewardess staff between short hauls vs. not so chic places was startling. It was obvious the unions kept the older, fatter, bitchier stews happy by making sure they were on flights ending in desirable locations.

Nothing like going to Hawaii with a bunch of irritable grandmothers "serving" you.
