Yep, that's the one. Eva Green is a hottie, but no employee would be given a pass for showing that at work. It's just ironic, especially when you consider how much energy UAL expends promoting gay rights.

If you are this concerned, why don't you call an ALPA attorney?

Call an attorney to explain that I find something ironic? Pass.

You could file a complaint yourself about workplace hostility, that the video violates the "working together guidelines", with the graphic content.

Although you are not required to watch that movie, you are required to work in the environment where customers do watch it. That would include deadheading next to someone that might watch it, or a non rev- flight where your kids are exposed to it.

Some movie content does slip by the screeners. Years ago I complained about the content of a couple movies.

Believe it or not, the company actually took the complaint seriously and looked into it. The changed some of the parameters of what is acceptable with the company that screens the movies for them.

No ******. Complaining to the company about movie content? Seriously? Maybe we should put bibles in all the seat back pockets.

So did this actually happen or what? The suspense is killing me.

There is a reason why L-UAL had to call the flight deck a "flight deck" instead of a "cockpit". You guys still have to do that at the "new" UAL? I was shown the door before the merger and curious minds would like to know.
