US Airways slammed after flight attendant refuses hang Army Ranger's uniform jacket

Bingo! and I think you nailed it..... many have never had a real job and they show it by their flippant attitude. "Well gee, m/b she had a bad day. Doesn't everyone?"......

That nurse that I had talked about wasn't having a 'bad day' - she was just lazy and treated the wanna-be blood donor w/rudeness and lost a good paying job..... lazy and stupid.

Yeah, there's that old saying 'no matter how good you are, there's always someone who's better'....... very true.

 

Obviously this incident with the rude flight attendant happened early in the 4-1/2 hr flight. Can you imagine how tense the atmosphere was for the duration of that long flight? Really, if you're gonna do something rude & stupid, don't do it in front of a captive audience. I haven't gone looking... wonder if her pic is out there?

 

Lol.... it may be.

I just remembered a couple months ago a friend's daughter & husband went to Hawaii. Lynn told me that coming back there was a group of guys on board and they were drinking. The more they drank, the more vulgar & louder they got w/their jokes and...... the FA was enjoying every minute of it, involving herself as much as she could. The passengers were disgusted w/what was happening.

When they landed, Lynn and some others asked to speak to someone in management and pointed out the FA to him. I bet she's now standing in the unemployment line....she must have been having a bad day.......

 

Whatever her employer did was purely a business decision-unless you naively believe the 'apology' was genuine! I got in trouble and lost a crap job for calling the boss a dickhead-he was, and I have no regrets. I speak my mind and screw authority. People don't demand respect in my book; they earn it-boss or no boss.

 

There you go again being judge, jury, and executioner. That is the type of disrespect Tea Party members do to soldiers that do not fall in line with their political ideology. And of course you are going to believe those soldiers because it is exactly what you want to hear, not what you need to hear. You see billy, you are like a monkey whose hand is caught in a cookie jar. Once you grab that sweet fruit, you do not know who to get it out or how to think beyond your limited programming.

That being said, all the evidence we know so far that has been confirmed is that Bendgaph is UA. You cannot, however, make the charges stick of Article 95, desertion, until you prove intent that Bendgahl was to leave his post permanently like cpl Hassounm. Intent is there with Cpl Hassounm. As for the report, that is the discretion of the executive branch. We all know that the Tea Party will not accept the report no matter what it says and will not accept the word of a United States officer on what those charges will be. And that is disrespect too.

 

Yes, war is ugly and it is cruel. But there is a hell of a difference between Lansing 73 and the Battle of Hui. And we would not have been able to throw out any Iraqi soldier during the first or second gulf War either given the rules of engagement prescribed .

 

The flight attendant did provide bad customer service to the soldier, but bad customer service means how she handled the situation, not the eventual outcome. She should have handled it better. Even if she did provide good customer service, but denied his request, BrocoBilly and other Tea Party members will still be up in arms about the whole affair while making dubious and irrational claims to push their irrational agenda.

 

That is just so stupid. Civilians and and soldiers who fly should be treated the same by the flight crew no matter if the solider was in civies or in uniform. People who fly and go to interviews for one day and wear suits have the same problem as a soldier in a class A uniform while flying coach. This Tea party entitlement attitude is for the birds.

 

Of course you will never admit it. It is not about the uniform or respect. It is about the Tea Party entitlement according to their political ideology and nothing else.

 

She is not in public relations. She is a flight attendant that interacts with the passengers. Yes, she showed bad customer service for that one time. But that does not mean she does it all the time.

It is a minor embarrassment to the airline and I do not think she will get fired. Maybe reprimanded, but not fired.

 

You mean like BLM agents? FBI? IRS CI? Or any other special agent in a regulatory government agency?

 

Every politicians is "slimy" no matter which political affiliation they belong to.

 

But it happens. It is human nature. How often is the real question. If this was her complaint in, let's say, five years, would your condeomn her? No you would not. You may discipline her, but not fire her.

 

Wow, what a steaming pile of dung laden opinion I just read from you. You can't even use the analogy of a "hand in the cookie jar" properly. Pssst....you don't put your hand in a cookie jar to pull out fruit, you pull out cookies.

The soldiers in Berghdal's unit were there, you weren't, nor was I, and their eye witness accounts far out weigh your bull(*)(*)(*)(*) opinion you just posted. The TEA Party has nothing to do with Berghdal the deserter/traitor, but it has everything to do with Obama the liar and trading 5 islamo-nazi murderers for his sorry ass.

 

Where do you keep getting your BS about my comments being TEA Party anything, they are my comments. You are sounding so desperate trying to rationalize the lashing this soldier took from the flight attendant. You not realizing the difference between a suit and uniform doesn't surprise me, it is so typical of the liberal mindset, and one of the main reasons the military have far more conservatives in their ranks than liberals

 

The investigation is complete. How about you reserve judgement until the verdict? Like you said, you weren't there...

Sorry, but if she had handled it better, it would not have gone viral. Her attitude was obviously so bad that it caused First Class passengers to offer their seats to him and begin immediate tweeting of this incident. All the while, the soldier made no fuss and politely refused their kind offers. A First Class passenger finally took his jacket and hung it behind his seat. When it is that bad, that stewardess should be punished for giving a black eye to the airlines and embarrassing the company. All because someone asked if his coat could be hung up...

 

What the heck is "Tea Party Entitlement"? That is so silly, yet so typical. Since when do you have to be a Tea Party member to be nice, compassionate and have good manners?

 

Yes, it's always politics with Obama the liar, "after the November elections they will release the findings". Now anyone with a brain larger than a pea knows those findings have got to be damaging, otherwise they would have released them immediately by the demands of the president. But that is not happening now is it.

From your article:

The Pentagon's announcement has Republicans and former platoon mates of Bergdahl's wondering what's taking so long, as the facts of the case appear fairly cut and dried on the surface.
According to soldiers who served with Bergdahl, the 28-year-old willingly abandoned his base several days before he was kidnapped by the Taliban and taken hostage in June of 2009.
For nearly five years he was held captive by the terrorist organization until President Barack Obama and the Pentagon negotiated his release last May.
Acting on his own authority, Obama traded five Taliban commanders who were being held in detention at Guantanamo Bay for the release of Bergdahl, who is now living and working at a base in San Antonio, Texas.
Bergdahl has not spoken out publicly since his return to the U.S. and has reportedly refused to meet with his family in person.


Walking away from your post is desertion, coupled with teaching our enemy how to build bombs, which is treason.

Oh, and my favorite left loon tripe from this deserter is:

'I am ashamed to be an American': Emails from freed PoW before he was captured and held by Taliban for five years show he had become disillusioned and planned to leave

Wow.... didn't know those details - thanks for a more clear pix of what happened. That FA must have really been ugly to him - and kudos to the 1st class passengers who had the class to stand up on their principles and do the right thing. More often than not, people don't want to 'get involved'... sure not true in this case which is refreshing.

After all this negative publicity the airlines got, thanks to her, I'm betting she will be canned, if she hadn't been already. There's to many well-qualified, attractive women out there who also have another redeeming quality - self control - to represent the airlines.

 

Yeah, I was glad that passengers spoke up too. I am sure the flight attendant was surprised. I wonder what the other flight attendants thought and why they didn't speak up.

 

"According to soldiers"; see, that's called 'anecdotal evidence' until they are sworn under oath. He may be guilty, he may not. That isn't for you or I to decide.

 

Yeah, I bet she was shocked to see the reaction from the other passengers and the other FA's probably felt obligated to side w/her. Some people are like that - their loyalty is misplaced.......

I remember a couple of the nurses were peeved at me b/c I reported that lazy, rude charge nurse and she was canned and I flat out didn't care.. They got over it and we went back to being pals......

For some people, they think they're better than others and their title should excuse their behavior - "flight attendant" - "charge nurse" whatever it is...... no, it doesn't and it shouldn't.

 

It's anecdotal because you have no idea who testified. You can be sure those comments would be under sworn testimony

Delay in the release of the investigation

Letters being ashamed of being an American

Leaving his post

Teaching the taliban to build bombs

Naw, sounds perfect innocent to me

 

Would you say the same about a pilot who crashed a plane? He just had a bad day? Drawing national NEGATIVE attention to your company once is enough for dismissal in any customer service job, esp if your company is responsible for people's safety.

Doesn't matter what we think... we'll have to wait and see if she gets fired. I'm sure we'll hear because lefties will squeal like stuck pigs.
