As much as I hate the instagram influencers, aren’t we supposed to refrain from dropping names on this forum? Or do they appreciate it because it gives them more fame lol?

Try to hide someone who plasters themselves all over social media without the slightest attempt at anonymity? Ok…

His real full name is in his Instagram name. Btw, I’ve never met him but he appears to be a major douche. Full of himself as well.

Rascal Flatts lookin’ D-BAG representing our brand and, sadly, our professionalism. Yet….we now live in bizarro-world, where hot is cold, up is down, and THIS is something our company views as positive branding. When I think of a “level 4 professional”……..this ain’t it, Scott.

Honestly, I couldn’t give a rat’s ass about U’s perception of good branding. However, I’m offended as hell that he represents ALPA pilots in this way. SMFH doesn’t even begin to describe it.

Swayne, or Rascal Flats?

As much as Swayne seems to be the typical millennial or genZ that needs the gratification/"look at me!!!!" factor, he's at least made a crap ton of videos for people trying to get into the career. From a lot of aspects. As lame as they are.

Rascal Flats just seems like a bag of feminine hygiene product of epic proportions.

Company loves this guy and are well aware of him .

but think about it , what type of individuals are hired in HR ? Commonly the type of people that are trendy and eat this stuff up , doesn’t surprise me in the least. IMO , he doesn’t represent the majority of pilots in the US . He clearly comes from a dif group compared to most pilots .

I kind of get the feeling that professionalism and safety are not the highest priorities for hiring pilots.

Narcissism has been “celebrated” in the industry for decades…not much has changed. Social media and being woke is a warm cloak indeed.

Who cares about being on-time or treating customers with integrity and respect? Pfff…we have got emotional parasites to fill…a lot of empty souls out there need validation.
