I’m an airline pilot and it’s funny how many people I work with that tell me they don’t want to move on to work with United and Delta because they have gone “woke”. United and Delta have always had the best pay and benefits and I’ve been shocked to see how many people put their own bigotry and racism before working for a company that will give you the best quality of life and pay.

These are the people who have made it their political identity to vote against their own interests, so it shouldn’t be surprising.
