This whole farce at Southwest they call "CULTure" is just that, a farce. It's a marketing gimmick riding on the coattails of history. Nothing else.

Other than the pilots, the major difference in SWA employees is they all dress like their on their way to a picnic. Shorts, t-shirts etc. Looks like a very "comfortable" work uniform for employees.

That was my impression of her as well when we had to endure “Fly Day” class.

I'm not at SWA, but it's a pretty accurate description of what's going on in the world right now. I'm not sure there's anywhere you can go to escape it.

That article has appeared on several hard right leaning sources. It smacks of hyperbole and language designed to evoke an emotional outrage response from those who enjoy such things.

It has a hint of truth, but is mostly BS.
