“We thought about the possibility that we could face situations in some states where laws might be passed to counter a decision that we might make and what the implications of that might be,” said Brett J. Hart, the airline’s president. “That legal risk did not trump the possibility of keeping some of our team members, who otherwise wouldn’t be here, alive.” The airline said dozens of its employees had died after coming down with Covid.

United executives said they were surprised that positive feedback from politicians, customers and the public far outweighed the criticism it received.

Customers thanked the airline, and job applicants said they were excited to join a company that took employee safety seriously. United has received 20,000 applications for about 2,000 flight attendant positions, a much higher ratio than before the pandemic.

As you can see, the entire country is not terrified of vaccine mandates, and the airlines haven't been devastated by the employees who quit in protest. 20,000 applications, for 2000 jobs.

Something to remember when you assume that I'm wrong, just because I'm outnumbered here. The entire country isn't devoted to people like Alex Jones.

Two things:
1. What have you ever been right about, and what does job applications have to do with it?
2. Who here supports Alex Jones?

I was unaware that airline employees quitting over the vaccine was a thing. As usual, you miss the mark. The problem is hospital staff quitting and getting fired. Where are the thousands of job applications for those positions?

After hearing radio leaked military discussion, I looked for a non slanted link http://americanmilitarynews.com/2021/09/army-flight-surgeon-says-pilots-risk-sudden-cardiac-death-from-covid-vaccine-side-effect/
Many military ppl ARE right wing due to the constitution and protection rights being a priority with them ..
I found while searching that ^ link, there has been a strange uptick in plane+chopper crashes since this diabolical twist has taken form upon us as a nation. Even other crashes, Philippines, Pakistan. Many crashes!
This will take a good investigation from a reporter but tbh the military grounding service pilots - Speaks LOUDLY to me.

when did all of this start happening? because i've been talking about aircraft incidents correlated to some long term transits the united states is experiencing for awhile now. even correlating the strike they all went on and quitting i filed under "Aircraft incidents"

Lol honestly this is hilarious

Here we have our resident bootlicking lefty abandoning the workforce in favor of the Big Corp/political alliance. Also apparently clueless about the pilot shortage of the past few years.

Typical

Let’s se if any of those 20,000 applicants can be pilots. Southwest canceled 1,800 flights. FAA air traffic controllers are walking out. It is going to get bad.
