I'll just say what I'm sure we're all thinking, Dorian: that SUCKS.
And it's just plain mean. I mean the one darn perk we get for screwing our wives, husbands, significant others, children, mistresses and bartenders who all miss us when we are gone on business is the ability to bribe them with free tix and upgrades
Seriously, though, I would personally find this a great excuse to take advantage of the wonderful job market out there...
