Just to clarify, we are talking about Fazolis the fast food Italian place? If so I know of at least 2 that used to be in the Columbia, SC area. Used to eat there a long time ago. But now, not so much.
Guess we'll see.
@Derg your airline is rapidly becoming the airline of choice for the anti vaxxing dollar.

You do understand that I may have a more, err, uniquely intimate understanding about certain things at a certain carrier, yes?

They can't afford to fly Delta!
Keyboard warriors are saying that they're boycotting flying UA because their pilots are gonna be vaxed. And are worried about them dying, or having an emergency in-flight as a result.

Haha that’s the wrong reason to be worried about your pilot dying.
We should be worried about the: horrible food, long hours, terrible working conditions, radiation exposure, compounding fatigue, poor staffing etc.
But yay society! Yay (some) pilots! You chose this as your hill to die on?
Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse…

Well, they aren’t and no matter how many moronic anti-science Freedumb people think so, it doesn’t make it reality.
Hell, we’re 90%-plus at this point and good luck on finding an open seat anywhere. I’ve gone from mild patience to abject ridicule of the “OMG I want a balloon, I’m scared of the needle” crowd.

Color me surprised that @Wardoggis so in favor of Delta. When most are getting vexed, in compliance with the company mandate. In order to avoid paying an extra $200 a month in insurance. But I guess in his mind, company mandate good. But federal mandate = bad. I thought that they were against any all mandates.
Heard this week at work, by two Trump loving employees of mine. Saying that forced mandates are against the Geneva Convention accords.
I just think people don’t press ‘pause’ and think things through.
It’s just hilarious how invested some of our fellow Americans are in an old, tired argument about the concept of vaccinations. I wonder if 2021 was anything similar to Luddites screaming in the streets during the accelerating Industrial Age.
It didn’t matter how they felt no matter how strongly they felt about it. Progress has prevailed.
speaking of middle seats, was on a SWA flight the other week and there was this group of big overweight dudes, all of whom took the middle seat in empty rows they came across, figuring no one would want to sit next to them…..from what I gathered from their conversation.

They still require covid vaccines for newhires. They also took a different route than others for current employees. They essentially required people to get vaccinated or pay an extra $2400/year for insurance. They are pro-vaccine, they just don't seem to want to take a hard position on mandates.
Honestly, I find it funny no one really seems to complain about new hire vaccine mandates. I bet if a class date is offered people drop their anti-vax position in a heartbeat.

People that nuts wouldn’t be able to find the way to the airport anyways.

Not a bad tactic and one I employ on lightly booked flights.speaking of middle seats, was on a SWA flight the other week and there was this group of big overweight dudes, all of whom took the middle seat in empty rows they came across, figuring no one would want to sit next to them…..from what I gathered from their conversation.

Is Delta still the Unvax airline of choice? Did Ed ever change his stance and go the way of United?
