He moved out to SFO to be closer to his boyfriends family and is enjoying life. He is just laying low and enjoying Hawaii layovers. He's not gone, just taking a break.

Last I saw he is based out of SFO on the 756.

If I were him reading all the union AND company emails about social media, I'd go 7600 real fast.

UAL wanted him to make more during contract negotiations after the failed TUMI TA. He Declined. UAL controls access to locations used for his productions...

He got hired by a legacy that’s what happened.

after I got hired by a legacy I stopped building gay houses for green peace. Save the trees, burn the rain forest down.

You know. All the nonsense you used to have to put on your resume to get hired.

Those emails are about people on the completely opposite end of the spectrum from Swayne. Derogatory, insensitive posts. Have you ever seen content like that from Swayne?!

Make no mistake, his work as well as 'layover life' and all the other influencers are all closely coordinated with UAL. Vetted. Reviewed. Signed off on. Did you know UAL has internal conferences for all the employee influencers? How do you think they get film of empty airplanes, hangars, and other spaces?

Make no mistake, he's a good guy and I respect his 'side' Hussle. But if you think the union emails are directed at him you're not getting the message.

I talked to Swayne at the picket in ORD last year. Yep, he walked the walk. Much respect for him telling the company to pound sand while in negotiations. Great guy, I'm glad he's here.

Super cool talking point bro. Prob goes over well at an Irish Pub in Asia while surrounded by New Balance kicks. Sorry to say that reality is Swayne both respects and understands our profession as well as any new hire I have encountered. Save the rage for next Aviate or Kirby 'Woke' moment...

It's also obvious that there's attention and a machine directed towards social media. Previously ... the benefits includeded getting a mainline job, now the risks include losing one.
