Jesus Christ. Three more weeks of this bullshit. I fly Southwest fairly often. Hopefully I'll have this simpering twat of a flight attendant on one of them so I can express my disdain to his fucking face mask.
No, and Southwest is easily one of the best airlines. It's just that a lot of people of a certain lifestyle are drawn to that industry and they are the ones making stupid decisions like this.
That particular flight crew wanted to make a statement and they did. Let's see how it works out for them.
This is an incredibly wrong answer. You hold the entire airline responsible for this behavior. When it starts costing them millions of dollars, then they start changing their policy. Large companies have hundreds to thousands of bad employees. The better companies weed these people out and make statements condemning the bad actions of their employees.
The companies run like a wet paper bag full of feces don't do employee control well. They don't take the time to set up policies and some minimal training to ensure employees know the right way to handle this kind of thing.
In this case, the flight steward (he isn't an attendant anymore than a garbage man is a sanitation engineer) should have approached the passenger and asked if he could please put his mask on. The passenger could have said "I'm eating" and the steward could have said, "when you aren't eating, please make sure your mask is on." That would have taken care of it.
The flight steward would have known this if Southwest had made a 15 minute training video and had all employees watch it, and sign off on it. If we were in the early phases of mask mandates, it could take awhile for the company to recognize that they might have problems. At this point in time, everyone should know there are potential problems, and policies and training should have been worked out.
Unless Southwest comes out with a public apology, fires the employee and states they will make sure it doesn't happen in the future, then they are a mediocre airline at best.
Flying planes is easy. Lots of companies do it. Having decent policies to guide your employees is easy. Lots of companies do it. I would wager that Southwest is more at fault than this individual employee. This was preventable.
Since when have airlines stopped requiring their attendants to cover their tattoos? Call me old fashioned but I hate looking at them. If you wanna get one, go for it, but they don't exactly come across as professional. Like coloured hair or piercings, or even just wearing a bloody tshirt to work.
There's nothing wrong with these things, but they're not appropriate for a professional environment, and this guy looks about as professional as he's acting.

The type of man that ends up being a flight attendant at age 40 are sad, sad people. So they go on insane power trips like this.
