Hi Delma Thank you so much for your kind words. You know its not that I was crazy and over the moon about my job, its just the way my 25 years ended with the airline. It was not the way I ever wanted it to end, feeling like a criminal even though I was not. I had my retirement party last Friday, and my boss made the most stupid speech and everyone just looked at me and shook their heads. I have cried ever since. Nicole
