The wounds of Flight 3407 are still raw in this area. Worse for those of us who had a friend on the flight – unimaginable for those who lost loved ones. The hearings of this week have ripped off what scabs have started.
Look at the title of this piece. The phrase “worth his salt” comes from the Roman practice of paying soldiers with salt – a precious commodity. It is the source of the word salary.
Look, I consider the role of a cook noble and honorable and worthy of of respect, but to find out that the co-pilot of 3407 made just a few bucks more an hour than I did cooking is incomprehensible. I made food. Good food. This young lady had lives in her hands.
This is just so wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
