News and notes from around the interweb:
- New contract that United flight attendants will vote on allows the airline to put them up in hotels that are merely in ‘tenantable’ condition and the union that negotiated it is in damage control mode:
Why not just use the same standard as the pilots and include safeguards for cities where the core business district isn’t ideal? This just sounds like a way to water down the language instead of strengthening it. Saying we “modeled” it doesn’t mean it’s equal …

community on Reddit - Customers hate this with the intensity of 1,000 suns, yet no one is doing anything to improve the experience.
Thanks @AmericanAir for making us wait for our carry on bags because "The overhead bins are full." Great way to end a four hour delayed flight. pic.twitter.com/RW8YuoXdfS

- Saying please to someone so lacking in manners is “like putting an elevator in an outhouse, it don’t belong.”
- Have they tried turning it off and on?
Good sign before a long flight…

- Atlanta airport’s planned ‘Slutty Vegan’ restaurant will be replaced by a Buffalo Wild Wings and Wu Tang Asian Kitchen.
- ‘I walked through TSA with an erection and nearly passed out when I saw what showed on the scanner’
I put my hands up and did the scanner, I look at the screen, and THERE IS A HUGE RED CIRCLE around my private area. I got pat down once, this is common at airports, I have a subcutaneous defibrillator in my chest but he went to my legs. Then he brought over his supervisor, he pat me down again and I said lowly “I was just with my girl my bad man” and he said you’re good to go.
Speaking of ‘slutty,’ that guy in the bulkhead has his feet above his head. Like, does he want to get f..ked? Folks, put ya darn feet down. Save it for ‘you time.’ Sheesh!
With all of the restaurant closings going on in Atlanta, look for further consolidation in the industry. Enter “Slutty Wild Wings” on Concourse (B)iotch…
LMAO. Sold out by your senior members. Loook for… the Union Label
Speaking of regime change, can we get Maduro out of Venezuela, soon, too? Would like to see Angel Falls someday. And the way they’ve threatened their neighbors, specifically Guyana is a big no-no. Let’s do it. CIA. In and out. 20 minutes adventure!
@ 1990. Angel Falls is great, worth the trouble. But what kind of lib are you who wants to send in the CIA? That is the cause of the trouble with Persia.
Finally, United staff are being treated the way they treat passengers.
What does the United Article have to do with miles and points. Why do we keep hearing about this Union contract? They have been negating for many years. This is a deal hat was bargained in good faith. No more articles on the topic
@Trk1 so when you fly United and the surly FA spits in your coffee you’ll realize it might have something to do with spending the night in some fleabag hotel next to some slutty people @1990 and @Captain Freedom seem to know and that I like to hang out with.
Seriously, FAs are business travelers too and they deserve better than this.
