      Flight in (every form it is) is not a work (for the pilots) it's a passion and i think there will never be a pilot that says ''i go to work'' the will say '' i go fly''
      (sorry for English but i am not a native English speaker)

      The worst possible moment you mean. If he had not retired, they likely would have forced retirement on him with a golden parachute and unemployment payments that were further more than doubled by the feds. He would have made bank for not working, instead he got nothing.

      Sadness -- especially sadness born of nostalgia and transition like this -- is just such a gloriously beautiful thing. I don't understand a great many things about the world, but the realization that people push down on this emotion is just absolutely alien to me. As my favourite comedian once said, "When you're sad, you have to just *be* sad. You have to stand there and let it hit you like a truck. Because if you can't feel sad, you can't feel anything."

It was an emotional moment when the community that he served all showed their gratitude by standing at their doorsteps and waved milk bottles. Dad's closest mate had fixed a mic on the cart itself which allowed him to say his goodbye to his faithful clients in words that I had carefully scripted.
