Yeah, sad indeed. You'd like to think people are paying attention to HVAC systems, especially nowadays.

On a different subject and after reading about the latest Dave Chappelle uproar.... as usual people having a fit over some of his jokes and in this case about the transgender community.
No one here knows what a TERF is. I sure didn't. Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist Excerpt from an interview with Chappelle: Following the release of his Netflix special earlier this week, Chappelle received criticism from the trans community — as well as social media at large — after he made jokes about the so-called “cancellation” of Harry Potter author JK Rowling, who was labeled a “TERF” (trans-exclusionary radical feminist) following multiple comments she made about gender on Twitter. “They canceled JK Rowling – my God,” he said on stage. “Effectually she said gender was fact, the trans community got mad as shit, they started calling her a Terf...I’m Team TERF.” |

Dave Chappelle, you know him, right? He often makes controversial comments during his standup concerts. This was from his latest one that was just released on Netflix. The trans community got bent out of shape because of some of the material from his show. |

They reduced staff during Covid, then tried to keep up with increasing flight schedules. Flight crews and staff were doing a lot of OT, then the vaccine mandate hit. Right or wrong, that was probably the last straw.

I was caught up in that mess flying on Sat. Supposedly, air traffic controllers walked out and a lot of pilots/crew are taking their days before the mandate. Not sure how accurate this is as I'm not a pilot. Some of the other guys here would know more than me.
The lady at the check in counter said she has worked for Southwest for over 30 years and this weekend was one of the worst. She said they are not staffed properly and SW is killing them. She said I'm tired and worn out. It's not supposed to be like this. I really felt bad for her and thanked her for being so kind under such stress. |

Everyone but Amazon, UPS.... reduced over the past 1.5 years. Now none of us can anyone. My question is, if everyone is hiring and many are closing 1, or more, day a week because staffs are low.... where is all the traffic going?

They had new hires who were supposed to start their on-boarding training yesterday and the company basically said, "Welp! Sorry!"…..and these are people who quit other jobs to work for SWA, and you just leave them hung out to dry with no support?!?! Shitty! Apparently the CEO is retiring soon as well, so he gives zero fucks. |

Just now? I haven't flown SW since 2010 and it didn't seem great then. I've always referred to them as the Greyhound of the sky. |

Facebook with its name change to Meta doesn't mean a damn thing. It's still the same shit company it has always been.

The name change is just to show they are moving their focus to the metaverse idea and not wanting to only be known for facebook/social media. Definitely still the same shit company.
