Hawaiian airlines is cutting free in-flight meals, moving to pre-paid menu

Makes you wonder about people who just absolutely cannot go without that drink or alcoholic beverage or glass of wine, can’t simply delay it to later, as if their life depends on it. To the point it makes them emotionally angry and laser focused on something that’s pretty trivial in the big scheme of things like one’s career. Definition of an addiction. Makes you truly wonder if these are the future people who are going to end up on the news for showing up to work with some degree of inebriation. Same with heavy smokers who absolutely cannot go even an hour without a cigarette.

Agree. And we, collectively, often treat it as normal or even funny when it comes up. Or normalize “needing” a drink after a rough day or to fall asleep etc.

I understand that not everyone will agree with me, but it just isn’t something I’m willing to expend negotiating capital on. Not that I have any say in it anyway.

It's not a contractual issue. It's a company policy.

So is the uniform/appearance code, but the union has some input on that.
