Remember the days when I'd fly to Chicago every week to work on the United bankruptcy case, (and see you guys of course)? I built up an INTENSE dislike of all things United. Not only did they make me work in the basement...in Elk Grove...with no windows...and daily alternating sub-zero cold/Africa-hot heat, but I had to fly with them twice a week for 8 months. Lessons learned: 1. Consulting is not for me 2. Avoid bankrupt airlines (reinforced by my nightmare Delta experience in Rome last fall).
