[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 1117557, member: 4653"] Great point. The odds of you dying in a commercial airline plane crash in your whole life is 1 in 66,000 if you take 1 round trip flight a year. A single flight is 1 in 1,000,000. Even an "air warrior" that flew every working day for 30 years has a 1 and 787 chance of dying in a crash. Compare those stats with driving. The lifetime odds of dying in a car accident are about 1 and 158. Sounds like we should get hazard pay. No? We are on the road 10 times more than average Joe. So our odds might be more like 1 and 15.8 Ahh, but our UPS training will keep us safe and beat the odds. You can't, however, prevent that drunk crossing the center line and killing you and it doesn't matter how well you know the 10-point. Yeah, we deserve hazard pay on top of the 32 bucks:happy-very: [/QUOTE]
