Kind of hard to claim tiring work schedules on this one. They're on the wrong end of the radio transmission to be watching inflight movies.

Anything that our fed gov runs end up like this. The bad employees make the good ones look bad. Big shame. Problem is that the ratio is about 75 to 25. (bad to good)

I just hope the 3 min of soundtrack heard by pilots didn't spoil the ending, I hate when that happens...
