There was a short lived tv series too. Not really bad for the time.Prepare for carousel... This movie got a lot of air time in the 1970s and early 1980s. I did not get it until I got a bit older. Watch out for the sandman !
If hes doing his job properly, nothing they can do other than lay him off, which means he will be entitled to severance, or "force" him to retire by saying that they are giving him the choice between retirement and being laid off. They cant rehire for his job though if they do that.
If his performance is fine why would they want to get rid of him?
Pilots are just drunken glorified bus drivers what the hell do we even need em for.. a computer can land a plane.
no such problem in aircraft
fire the pilots

Is he plodding on or is he a contributing team member? All things being equal I would think any employer should want a younger employee. Young is where it's at, everybody knows this. Everyday at midnite one can safely conclude that's one day closer to death. This is still a grey area of psuedo reality to those with more days ahead than behind, barring any unfortunate incidences. I would get rid of him by making his job so safe that he can't possibly perform it without breaking the very safety rules designed to protect him. Have him be in contravention of dismissable offences at all times. They're building hospitals like that all the time and when they're done you could sent this guy to the nut ward. Or death ward whichever is most fitting at the time. Time, which is in the future of course, which isn't helping his cause one iota. Win/win/win.
since all the planes will be autonomous
'autonomous' cars have to deal with hordes of RETARD human drivers... send Lewis Hamilton to Pacific Mall on a saturday and he'll probably crash too. Ya know?
With planes its easy... you just fire all the pilots, let em mop the terminals or bartend in the lounges (they like booze right) and since all the planes will be autonomous, there's no problem! Computers are awesome that way. Just gotta eliminate humans.
I know a guy who is in his early 70's and is still working as he has no life outside work. To my knowledge a person can't be forced to retire at 65 so he plods on.
Where does this leave his employer who I suspect would like him replaced by a younger more with-it type?
He's been with the company since college, 45 - 50 years.
because computers won't get suicidal either!
the only problem to my master plan (I've thought this through) is all the old junkers still flown by airlines..
BUT
once they fire the overpaid drunks flying their buses, they could afford fancy new hardware
Added bonus: no more possibility of a Germanwings 9525 repeat!!! because computers won't get suicidal either!
Will need skynet.But software geeks seem like they would. Unless the computer can write it's own code then . . .
New people bring new ideas. While a person could be working as well as ever a newbie could bring new methods and attitudes.....
tell us about it, i'm dying to hear more?:lmao:Maybe not but it's still prudent to put computers at back of the plane. You never hear about a airplane backing into a mountain. Seniors ride up front of course.
