AA Employees Are Listening

April 15th, 2008 by Jordan

American Airlines

It’s kind of sad, but I just have to smile. If you’ve been paying attention to the news lately you know American Airlines had to cancel a lot of flights due to not passing safety inspections. Fine. If you’ve been paying attention to the news in your entire life, you know air travel pretty much sucks. (I can really only speak of USA based Airlines, I’ve heard other countries have better systems).

Well, American Airline employees are starting to strike and they have a sloppy website put together to get back at AA management. One video shows an employee trying to explain what happened to a canceled flight to a mob of customers. The first minute she is trying to get them quiet enough to listen, the second minute she explains all the f-ups, and the third minute she explains how the customers will get screwed…all in a very nice manner. Basically, it must really suck to be an AA employee. Personally, I have seen some pissed off customers while in airports, and most of the time, the employee just has to stand there and let the customer vent, then tells them nicely…”you’re fucked…I can’t do anything…thanks for flying.”
