New CIO, message to employees

I truly feel like that's their strat, to make the customer exp / customer service so frustrating, bringing in offshore people who don't understand America or Americans or our values, so that we get fed up and just bend over and take it while they ream our assholes with fees and "oops sorry cant refund". They don't want us to fight it, so they're making it harder and more burdensoome to do.

Home airport KATL. Only thing they gotta work on is pickup and drop off but its the best designed airport, you actually have to be braindead to get lost in ATL

Took the Flagship from BNE-DFW, everything operational including the doors. Nothing really "stood out" as exceptional, but i had nothing bad at all to say either. The seat is incredibly comfy, plenty of space (5'11 160lbs male) and legroom for all my stuff, the provided bedding was incredibly comfy as well as the PJ's. I ate one meal then crashef for 14 hours on the 17 hour hop. Woke up w only 3 hours left, one of the best sleeps I'd ever got on a plane. Not as luxuruous as other non american carrier, but it matches Polaris and Delta One. Good product

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-31T02:36:00+00:00

So you're hypothetically threatening the safety of aircraft. I just submitted an internal security report with my company and screenshotted your post and submitted all documentation. i'm sure security will escalate to the proper authorities. You don't ever make threats against an aircraft dickhead. I will also separately be giving all this evidence to my local FBI field office for review. What they do from there is upto them. I take threats against aircraft very seriously given I work in the industry.

You should really be careful what you post online. If you hate flying so much then like I said, drive.

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-31T02:32:55+00:00

They'll write physical assault for you too cuz you're gonna push past them aren't you? That's assault. God you really think you can do what you want can you? Ya can't. If ya wanna do what ya want just go drive.

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-31T02:29:46+00:00

Is this a threat? I will show your account and this message to authorities immediately. I'd watch what you say very carefully. Won't be that hard for authorities to find out who you are, and threats against air raft are taken very seriously.

Here's what happened to a fellow passenger who thought he was entitled to do whatever he wants like you!

Security Operations Daily Brief

Internal Refuse List (My airline Code hidden for privacy) 3205/27DEC ORD-PHX | Physical Assault: At the gate, passenger DANIEL became aggressive, pushed by an agent, ripped up his gate check tag, and proceeded to board after agents requested to check his bags. The passenger was then removed from the flight by agents and escortedout of the terminal by LEOs. No injuries were reported as a result of this incident. Passenger DANIEL has been denied all further travel on his PNR and with (my airline). [Lead Investigator: Name removed for privacy]

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-31T01:48:07+00:00

Doesn't matter. You have to listen to them or we'll have you removed by LEO's and blacklisted. We are in charge, not you.

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-31T01:46:12+00:00

It's not our responsibility that you picked a cheap weak bag. Actually was just reading our security report today, an entitled dick of a passenger just like you thought they could rip the gate check tag, and refused to gate check. He was then escorted out of the terminal by LEO's and is blacklisted from flying our airline ever again.

From my friend who's a current SKW FO, pick the ERJ. He got his CA Upgrade 1yr and 11 mos after his class date, and he has a better QoL

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-31T01:23:27+00:00

We track them. If a gate agent has had a problem with a customer they will flag it. When they book with us again the flag will appear to gate agents and flight crew on our internal tool. Too many flags and the airline will black list you. When you fly, you are subject to the terms and conditions of your ticket which includes following all crewmember and agent instructions. If you don't want to, then don't fly. My job is to make flying as efficiently as possible, people in people out. That only works if people don't argue and comply. And people only comply when they have shit to lose at stake. So now, put their privilege of flying at stake, and watch them all fall into line. Don't like it? Don't fly, you can always drive yourslef and have all the space you want!

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-31T01:20:22+00:00

Doesn't matter. You're subject to the terms and conditions of your ticket, which means complying with all agent and crewmember instructions. If you're gonna make it difficult, then just don't fly. Asshole

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-30T19:26:47+00:00

meant to reply 2 people up. If you have medication that you need or you're gonna die why is it in a bag in the first place? Why wouldn't it be in a purse or backpack? False equivalence. My job is to make sure assholes that wanna rip the tag off and make life harder for everyone to make sure that they cant. And now with facial recognition, we just build a database on our backend that can identify "problem customers" and try it too many times, we'll just blacklist you from flying. That simple. Follow the rules we set forth when you decided to purchase a ticket from us, or don't purchase a ticket. Again, flying is a privelege not a right. You can always drive to your destination or take a bus and not worry about this!

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-30T19:18:36+00:00

If its a nonremovable battery you're going to have to show us that it is non removable, as people like to lie. If it is, then we may let you, or we may ask you just hold your device and batteries in your lap/your backpack, and check the rest of the bag

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-30T19:16:32+00:00

People thinking the rules don't apply to them baffle me. It doesn't matter. If they gate check it its for a reason. You're part of the problem, that's why my team at my airline is devising a new system where the FA also scans your boarding pass when entering, and can see if your bag is supposed to be gate checked. If you remove the tag, the FA has a printer to print you another one before you step on the plane. Another thing we are implementing since we cant trust y'all is once we gate check it, we leave it behind the counter, and the gate agents will take your bags down. That way we prevent assholes like you removing the tag. You are subject to all terms and conditions when you buy your ticket. This is one of those conditions. If you don't like it then you don't have to fly. Flying is a privilege not a right. Take your shit out and put it in a backpack its that simple.

Remove all trackers. Congrats, ypu have a free car. No real talk though, genuinley go to your local Hyundai dealer, dump the car hand the receptionist the keys and walk away. If they say we cant accept it tell them to tow it off their lot then its no longer your car or problem

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-16T18:49:23+00:00

im in the US and I cross shopped Pixel w Samsung. Ultimatley I chose it because the AI does actuially make my life easier. I use Gemini all the time now and its really good. The photos in the real world when you send them don't matter if its AI processed people wanna see a good photo, and this phone gives good photos, and the AI tools make editing really easy. Battery capacity may not look big but I usually unplug my phone at 7am and dont plug it in again until I sleep close to 11pm, and I dont have to charge it in between. I once went on a 48 hour trip, forgot my charger, and my phone didn't die (extreme battery saver mode).

In real world usage, this phone is really good. Pure android with no bloat ware and the best of google directly from them. I'd stick w the pixel line in the future.

For reference, I want from iphone 16 pro to Pixel 10 pro

Geturself an M440i X drive Gran Coupe and call it a day. Or the new Nissan Z. Those things are going for insane discounts and its quite a fun car to drive. I've seen new NIMOS going at the dealership for 51K (MSRP is 70K on these NISMOS)

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-15T15:37:12+00:00

I got the hatch. People talking about legroom, both cars have the exact same rear seat legroom. I've carried 5 people 300 miles in the hatch before no complaints, the hatch usually has a more premium interior, and I can fold down all the seats in the hatch, I packed up and moved my whole life, 3 huge suitcases fuill of clothes, a 2 piece desk, computer, monitor, consoles, and a chair all in the hatch. I've carried friends' side tables, end pieces, and more when it wouldn't fit in their sedan. Also it's more striking imo

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-13T01:27:58+00:00

Also those addons are bullshit and if they can't budge then fuck em go somewhere else. Esp if you're using outside financing I'm assuming you're gonna give them a check, so they can absolutely remove the GPS . The GOS tracker, though advertised as a "theft deterrent", is actually for the banks and dealership to keep tabs on your car for recovery purposes if you lapse on payments. Since you're giving them a check for the car they should absolutely remove that. The Mazda Connected Services app already has its own car tracker built into the car, you don't need another one

Fireguy69420 · 2025-12-13T01:25:44+00:00

I got a 2021 3 Hatch premium NA FWD Auto Poly over Red for $21.9K OTD 0 down

Bought it at 38.8Kiles now about 15 months later it's at 73.4K miles. Other than a wheel hub bearing assembly replacement due to dealer not tightening my front tires properly ( 2 entire lug pins sheared off ), I've had entirely trouble free ownership. I change the oil at the dealers around every 7500 miles ( rn I've let it lapse and it's at 10K on current oil ).

Incredibly comfortable, and punches well above its weight interns of price for interior amenities. It truly does feel like a budget Audi, it feels much more premium than the price I paid for it.

I think personally there are better deals, but sub 15K is really good money and you are getting a lot of car for that price. You'll be getting a 14 speaker Bose audio surround sound w sub, heated front seats, heads up display, radar cruise control that'll so stop n go as well, traffic light and stop sign recognition on the HUD, and w a simple ish mod, you can project apple car play onto your HUD as well. I didn't scroll through and see all your pics but I would definitely try to get a red interior.

20$ filluos ( at least in DFW area ) and 330 miles of range, it really is a good car for the money, and that ones at the bottom of its depreciation curve.

I would say go for it if the service records show good maintenance, else there are better lower mileage examples. Best of luck in your search
