Hey everybody. Welcome back and happy skews day to you. Today is June 29th, 2021. I'm Trey Crowder and ask Mark AGO. What's up, Mark?

What's up, Trey? Have you been on a plane yet since the COVID's wound up down or whatever?

I've taken one flight, but it was months ago, and it was kind of cool because it was a ghost town.

Nobody was on it. I had a row all to myself, you know, so I didn't mind it. I imagine that's ending, though.

Yeah, airports are busy again, and the airlines, so I flew a couple times in the past month.

And my flights went pretty fine, except they got moved around a couple hours one way.

But my mom's flight to come out to L.A. a couple weeks ago got moved a whole fucking day, right?

It got moved up like 12 hours from mid Friday morning to mid Thursday evening.

And apparently that shit's happening a lot and people are furious.

Like airlines are grounding flights and they're blaming it on us.

Apparently.

So what they did is they took the bailout money and pocketed it and fulfilled the letter of the law by,

because the deal was you keep your employees employed and you get this bailout money, right?

But they fired all their contractors.

They just only kept their salary employees.

Now they don't have enough contractors.

And apparently you have to have a bunch of like security clearances to work at the airport.

Who knew?

So they can't get people hired fast enough.

And apparently, uh, we just have to eat shit because, yeah.

Well, I'm not going to lie to you, Mark.

You have alarmed me very much with this because I'm not surprised by that,
