Southwest apologizes after flight attendant posts picture of passenger in Trump t-shirt

If you give a flight attendant a candy bar, you'll likely score a free drink, but for one Southwest passenger, even a king-sized Snickers probably wouldn't have earned him a complementary whiskey soda.

A Southwest flight attendant who recently noticed a passenger wearing a Trump shirt vented her frustrations on social media. The shirt read "Trump 45" and "Suck it up Buttercup."

"Someone did NOT get my most Positively Outrageous Service today on my flight ... #notgoingtosuckitup #dumpTrump #eeew," wrote the flight attendant.

Never once even imagined acting like that to a person that voted for Obama.

Deranged retards.

I miss the America of mostly the 70s and pretty much all the 80s.

Until last month I hadn’t flown SW for several years. I was “deeply saddened” by the employees (by SW or a contractor — not sure) at the SW gates to assist travelers. Was I in the Twilight Zone or Mosul? Rude middle-eastern people, looking down on us, and not helpful. Never again w/SWA.

Those were called stewardesses, long before the PC label flight attendant.

Either they don’t know that if they went pro-Trump, their business would probably not suffer or they just don’t care.

She was offended but she acted in an unprofessional manner. If, God forbid, the Trump supporter had need care or an emergency had happened, would this crew member have provided care? Sounds like the answer was no. Fire the person. Set an example.

“Give her a week without pay so she can figure it out.”

I am thinking that the passenger should get say a dozen free flights and they take the cost from her pay.

A reminder that she is a hired servent to the passenges.
She may become the boss in an emergency, but untill then she is a servent.

Screw Southwest. I used to fly them a lot and the people were polite even if the plane was a clown car. As soon as Trump was elected almost every flight attendant became an asshole. No more SW!

“”The traveler is on his TIME and on his DIME.””

And her wages come from all passengers that are flying. Show him/her what it would be like to go a week without that pay - suspend him/her/it.

“...A reminder that she is a hired servant ...”

Just like Congress and every other elected officeholder at state, county, and local.

Public SERVANTS - emphasis on servant.

And they need to reminded of it. Daily. Hourly. At Every contact.

The flight attendant should be fired.

Yes I do remember. Stewardesses plural, Stewardi singular.

“Coffee, Tea or Me?”

Thank you for your service. Dad came back from 'Nam, wasn't harrased. I asked why, he showed me his combat knife and said if anyone came up to him in the airport and pulled that shit on him, he'd have killed him.

Remembering how p.o.ed dad was the first two years after coming back from Vietnam, I'm not surprised anybody would've wanted to try anything with him.
