You'd think airlines would care about stuff like this

The relevant thing is that this guy, um, allegedly phoned in a bomb threat “to get a day off.” Then later, another airline hires him. Do you think he would have been able to hide something like this?

Man, that restores my faith in air travel!

I’m glad I won’t be flying for awhile.
