      “The incident is widely characterized by critics as an example of mishandled customer service.”

      Made me laugh, that’s putting it lightly…

      Holy shit what a ride that was.

      It’s clear from a lot of stories like this (severe customer mistreatment) that United employees are miserable people who hate their jobs but this is nuts. I hope Dr. Dao got a huge settlement from United.

      Wow. Even Trump thought they went too far. Damn.

      And the CEO who brushed that assault off ‘suffered’ a ‘delayed promotion’. Poor thing. For saying that stuff about anyone, let alone a customer, he should have been fired, no golden parachute.

      I think the doctor’s patients should have sued the airline too, since no doubt having their doctor pounded to a pulp caused them to miss their appointments.
