I like that Southwest is fun. However, somethings just cross a line, and I think that this is one of them. Be fun, joke, be lighthearted, but wearing something that says in some form or another, "I don't care", well, that isn't Southwest. Shouldn't the goal of Southwest to project "I do care"? I wouldn't get bent out of shape about it, but I have to admit that if I saw this, I would roll my eyes and think it wasn't appropriate. After that? I'd shrug my shoulders and move on with life. Well said. The threshold of thinking something is inappropriate vs. being so aggrieved to get online and act like someone kicked your puppy has been blurred. In today's world... they are one and the same. Being offended is now a badge of honor... signifying something to be proud of or something. And to take it a step further and conclude that this somehow implies this person can't do his or her job is another stretch. We're wearing masks much longer than many of us think is prudent. It's driving many of us bonkers and creating divisiveness more than unity. Why not take some of the seriousness out of the tires to soften the ride a bit? As with most of these online rants, I'm not sure what the goal is. To garner sympathy or solidarity? Because it seems if we disagree, we're told that we're not helping, or being mean, . I guess we're just supposed to say "Amen" and thus the afflicted party feels justified in their torment. Seems a little like letting the emperor run around naked in my opinion.
