Default United Swamped With Flight Attendant Applications

"Bankrupt United Airlines said on Monday it received about 7,500
applications for flight attendant jobs on Sunday, the first day of a
round of hiring that will add 2,000 jobs at the carrier. A spokes-
woman for the airline said the number of applications on Sunday
was more than seven times the expected response."

This directly contradicts the generally-held, but naive belief that the
American economy is doing well.
