As Southwest CEO Bob Jordan pretends to apologize—remember—SW got a $7B federal bailout, spent $5.6B of that on Stock Buybacks, gave their CEO a raise to $9.1M, & forced frontline workers into 16 hour shifts under threat of termination—while spending $0 updating SW software😳

Southwest’s debacle isn’t an accident. It’s the predictable result of billionaire & corporate corruption & greed—& thousands of workers & travelers are paying the price.

In a just world SW execs will face criminal charges.

@QasimRashid genuinely curious what crimes have they committed? Oh they’ve seriously messed up, but what have they done that amounts to criminal behavior?

@Vader19695 I would argue fraud. Agreeing to a contract they knew they could not fulfill is fraud. People relied on SW fraudulent representations and were put in harms way as a result of that fraud.
