One of the classic features of Gulliblity is the percieved gap between somebody's ambition and their capability.
Hot on the heels of the Heathrow Terminal 5 fiasco an emergency Bill is being rushed before parliament to be signed this coming Tuesday re-naming Heathrow's Terminal 5 The Dunning-Kruger Hub.
In a smooth PR move Heathrow management have issued a press release saying that the name change is to... quote... "Ensure customer loyalty during moments of truth. The 'DKNY' campaign will emphasise and strengthen air-relations with US customers"...presumably pasengers are being given complimentary extra dark sunglasses so that they won't be able to see the fiasco in operation!
Nice post! I really think the renaming is indeed very apt.
ReplyDeleteI still recalled my first visit to London Heathrow. I had to survive from my hand luggage for a couple of days before they found my bag. Oh gosh.. I wouldn't want to be there to witness the chaos at T5.
Excellent! You should have saved this for April 1st!
