This is truly a sad world |
My son works for Southwest. One morning he was notified by TSA that a SW pilot just breezed thru smelling of alcohol. When the pilot showed up at his counter to pick up some flight info, my son said, "Sorry, sir, but you're taking out this flight." Pilot said distainfully, "Oh yeah? Who's going to stop me?" Son replied, "Those 2 gentlemen behind you." Pilot escorted away; son had to appear at a hearing in Dallas; pilot lost his license. One less dangerous pilot, thankfully!
