American Airlines will not be able to fire the flight attendent who was rude to Beck. He is a homosexual and a union member which means he is untouchable. When AA goes out of business, let it be a lesson to all airlines not to hire sodomites and to fight unions tooth and nail.
I thought if an airline was in bankruptcy that union contracts could be abrogated. When Frank Lorenzo was on his airline-buying binge back in the 80’s he routinely took an airline he bought into CH11 just to bust the unions.
AA is in bankruptcy...
“Untouchable” can mean different things to different people, no?
In 1991 My wife & I were flying Continental Airlines to Cancun. This young male flight attendant was cutting up & joking a mile a minute. Actually entertaining.
In the seat in front of us were two elderly ladies. One asked him if he missed his family, flying all the time. He replied, “Ma’am, I’m not married!”
She pointed to the wedding band on his left hand. He said,
“Oh, that’s my `fag deflector’!” In the shocked silence that followed he explained, “There are a lot of fags in the airline industry. This helps keep me safe.”
Anyway, Glenn is up against the Gaystapo. A/A’s higher ups are too, and completely PW’d, IMO. Or is that FW’d?
