Now, wait a minute!!  The reason that Peoplexpress gives
lower salaries to its employees is that they have stock options
and thus have a vested interest in its corporate success.  Many
of us out here work at small computer companies for the same
reason, and it's no reflection on our competence.
 
With regard to your travel agent:  I can understand why she won't
book Peoplexpress flights.  It's a real pain to do so, as their eight
hundred number is ALWAYS jammed with calls .  Furthermore, Peoplexpress
is not on any of the standard booking computers and does not have
reciprocal seating arrangements with other airlines.  All these 
are good reasons why a travel agent wouldn't care to touch P.E.; too
much hassle for the commission.  However, it may well be worth the hassle
to you;  it certainly is to me.
