No way this guy should get a job back in aviation in this country. He has proven his poor judgement, his lack of self-control, and his complete disregard for other's safety. That he's much celebrated just shows how much is wrong with so many people. At first I laughed at the story too. An uptight queen getting in a catfight with a passenger and then bolting out the door via a deployed slide with an absconded beer to boot. Hilarious images! Upon reflection it's a sad story not a funny one. Good riddance and enjoy your short lived fifteen minutes of notoriety.
