Where do we find such mEN?

At least he doesn't have to worry about retirement now.

I think the cAPTAIN in that video is a parody of one of UALs SCABs hired in 85 that had the fuzzy dice hanging from the compass ... And made really stupid PAs ... Seems he retired 5-7-2015 ... His son is with us now ... I just hope that apple fell really far from the tree

Not calling this guy a tool, but really limits your options when you put something like that out there.

I’m just not so sure about putting out a video bragging about how you never busted a check ride is the best way to go about it. Definitely border line foolish.

Interesting tactic. Desperate much? I wonder if he puts the website on his airApps or on his resume. Wonder what HR people think when they see it. I mean he made a whole website dedicated to being hired by SWA. If it was generic I could see it possibly working but interesting tactic. If I was SWA I would interview the guy as its kinda unique that he made a whole site about wanting to be hired.

I’m sure.

It’s not a good way to go about it.

This guy reminds me of a fellow I was told about who make a cast of his foot and painted it to look like a southwest plane. His plan was to show up at the interview, slap the stupid thing on the table and try to make a stupid joke about getting his foot in the door.

Doubt that would be viewed as funny either.
