Doubling Down On Stupid

Southwest Airlines still wants their vaccine mandate.
Southwest Airlines Co. asked a federal court to reject a request from its pilots to temporarily block the carrier from carrying out federally mandated coronavirus vaccinations, saying such an order would put the company’s business, employees and customers at risk.
The Southwest Airlines Pilots Association is seeking to stop the airline from moving ahead with the Nov. 24 deadline for the shots until an existing a lawsuit it filed over alleged U.S. labor law violations is resolved. The union claims Southwest illegally changed work rules during the pandemic instead of negotiating them with pilots.
In related news, they’re trying to piss off the governor of Texas, the incoming CEO says they will cut flights next year if staffing falls short (and it will).
It’s true that if they lose a pilot in a heart attack due to blood clot in a vaccinated pilot (like Delta), the money woes will be much worse, especially if the plane crashes and hundreds of people perish.

Bonus if it crashes in a populated area, but of course that wouldn’t happen since The Shot is perfectly safe.
Where’s my “sarcastic font”.
