Lots of great points on leaving Southwest for other carriers:

Leave SWA for AA?

BOJO (BJ) is telling crews they are “not allowed to meet without Mediator present”, couldn’t go before Congress, was busy for the first 4 days of meltdown, has to fly First Class on American to avoid the employees he LUVs, like a contract LAST October, and is “not the contract guy,” “knows little about operations” 1 year ago, “No one was fired or demoted due to meltdown”, yes I accepted $2 million in stock grants then cut profit-sharing 50%. - Facts from crews he has flown with, unions folks, and SEC fillings.


I am seeing a trend - Apathy, Inertia, selfishness, pride

Wasn’t BOJO in charge of our IT for 30 years?

The guy inspires me about as much as a pebble on a sidewalk. Get rid of him.

BJ is the perfect puppet for GK. I doubt BJ is even allowed to choose the font on the coffee cups.

Even the Execs are starting to bail out!

Chris Monroe a Southwest Airlines 30 year vet most recently serving as SVP of finance and treasurer quits to join Texas Roadhouse.

We have coworkers - pilots, FAs, headquarters etc who are in committed same sex relationships. How would this make them feel? Just let people be who they are and worry about yourself and your family.

It takes a truly evil person to spend their personal fortune on something like this. I'm disgusted.
I think the main difference is that a woke person is not “subject to disciplinary action” for disagreeing with the billboard. Also, they don’t have to look at it, while the majority of people at these woke companies are forced to watch DIE videos and indoctrinating literature, and if they don’t display they’re adherence to it, they risk loosing their livelihoods for themselves and their families. How tolerant!
