Skywest pilot tool rides a belt loader

[PBRstreetgang]

Why was the video taken off?

Real simple. poster is an Expressjet pilot, Expressjet is owned by Skywest. Skywest most likely explained that union or not, he would be fired and have to campaign for his job back.In the meantime the Skywest pilot is being promoted to Asst. Chief Pilot SGU, special projects, "YouTube Research". He will be doing training modules,
How to Muscle Bags and Surfing Belt Loaders. He is in line for a V.P. position as soon as they can invent one, with a title more silly than "V.P. of Internal Culture"

Completely unprofessional but not representative of the entire work group. Meanwhile ExpressJet pilot continue to walk the ORD, IAH terminals with their sunglasses on, their shirts unbuttoned and eating lunch in front of customers behind the gate stations.

Wait, what's wrong with eating lunch in front of customers behind the gate stations?

If you're going to be totally accurate, Northface jackets on. Bonus points for the rockstars in hip huggers (dudes).

I don't care either way...

I think it is fascinating why people judge the way they do.

Is it the simple fact that he was doing the ramp work?

Is it the belt loader riding that bothered you?

I am just neutral to see the video. I am not praising, I am not criticizing.



Where I work, it is very common for pilots to help with the wheelchairs. It is also common for pilots to help FAs clean the cabin. Sometimes, if I see trash laying in the boarding area, I quickly take care of that and it takes 10 seconds. I have never heard people talk negative things about these actions.
We are not expected to do these things, but we just do it.

One time, a pax threw up (unbelievable quantity) all over herself as she was getting off the airplane, and all 5 of us pilots and FAs helped with the cleaning, taking care of the pax and the rest of the paxs who needed to deplane.

Nobody gave us a trophy for the good work, but nobody criticized us either. So, I am simply curious, why do people criticize, where is the line between acceptable/unacceptable action.

Amazing isn't it. Don't feed the kid. It's speaks volumes about him feeling the need to make the SkyWest guy look bad here. Very sad.

He was probably wearing cowboy boots too
