You walk down the terminal and UAL/DL/AA guys won’t give you the time of day if you nod or say hi….must have a rod shoved up their recrum in indoc.

Culture is what you make it…those at HDQ seem to think it’s still the 90’s with the arm wrestling competition, etc. Mgt killed that years ago but like to pretend it still exists. As long as you ignore anything coming from HDQ, this place is fine. Still tense due to lack of cba but it sounds like things are finally nearing the home stretch.

Caught a few rides on their jumpseat. Definitely a different environment. I mostly enjoy the flight deck environment here. Mostly…

While I do enjoy the friendliness here I could really do without the jetway party to discuss the rides in a completely opposite direction in an already crowded spot Not really in a rush to get the "jet" ready before the inbound pax are still de-planing either, especially when its a full L8-hundred.

But I guess thats what we did on the 200 so why change it now.

Ill busy myself with things outside of SWA up in the terminal until I am not in the way. Don't fret Kernal, we will not be late becuase of me.

Exactly, then hide outside and have the captain text you when the inbound crew is gone.

F the inbound crew that I see sitting at the gate after we shut the airplane down…… it is becoming the same BS culture as the FA’s…. Don’t worry, I know you are starting your day, but I am extremely thorough on my walk arounds……
