the Story is "pointless"

Rating: 5/10 (12 October 2010)

The story is about Byran Bingham who works as an outside consultant who fires people for a living because their own bosses don't like firing them. So he makes his living flying from one place to another firing people. The story picks up when they hire a new college graduate, Natalie Keener who is to use the internet to fire people to save money by not traveling. This causes Bryan's own zone of comfort outside down and faced being grounded and thinks that Natalie doesn't know the details of what it is like to fire people. Also along the way, Bryan meets a women Alex, who has the same personality of traveling as he does. Unfortunately I won't mention how the story ends, but it has a couple of loose ends, for instance, during the marriage of one of his sisters, the groom asked him about his own married life, and ask him "what's the point?" to which he responds that he needs a "co-pilot" and his life is about getting rid of excess baggage in his life. The story I believes ends being "pointless". It would have improved the plane have crashed, got fired, and had sister to support him that he realized that there is more to life then just flying and firing and people are simply not excess baggage and can be as important to you as your hands and feet. At least this story I prefer to end as less then pointless. There's no spoilers here, just my own alternative ending. I feel the story is somewhat empty.
