- So much for “CleanPlus”:
@united Thanks for handing me supplies to clean up blood on the seat myself from the last flight. Really appreciate the trash bag, gloves, and wipes.

Was just asked to ‘leave a tip’ at this self-service airport kiosk.
byu/trevortxeartxe1 inEndTipping - “What I did find worse was my seat mate who would take hits off his vape and would disappear for hours at a time in the bathroom with this bag that he hid under his shirt whenever an employee would walk by”
This passenger put her best foot forward all ride
byu/jeffreyhunt90 inAmtrak - Former President Biden bumped an American Airlines passenger out of first class but he wrote a birthday note to the downgraded man’s wife, who remained up front.
- People are awful.
@AmericanAir what do you do when a 17 year old passenger whose parents aren’t directly next to her is physically assaulted- by being kicked and pushed- by another passenger on a flight as you are disembarking? If you’re an AA flight attendant you tell the minor to keep walking pic.twitter.com/yhrYY16KHC

You’ve got to “hand” to to United.
United flight attendants are obviously not there for your safety when they won’t clean up possibly infectious blood at your seat and instead of using their training for such situations, have an untrained person, the passenger, do it instead. There for your safety my foot.
This UA flight attendant is obviously one of the many overworked, underpaid critical safety workers I keep hearing about. Throwing money at their union will surely fix the problem of unskilled labor with 2 weeks of training not performing up to expectations.
I would say maybe they should take a flight on an Asian carrier as part of their training, but then they’d probably infect the Asian FAs with their shitty attitude.
