On one hand it's such a beta move to tweet your frustration, but on the other it's scary that we live in a world where a GED holder in a blue polyester suit has such authority and power.

Duff Watson and his two children were boarding a flight from Denver to Minneapolis on Sunday. Watson said he has priority boarding because he’s an “A-List” customer.
When he arrived to the gate, the agent wouldn’t allow his two children to board with him.
“I was left very upset, very embarrassed, very humiliated,” said Watson. “In leaving I said, ‘real nice way to treat an A-list, I’ll be sure to tweet about it.’”
quote:
Southwest Airlines tweeted an apology to Watson and says it is reviewing the matter.
That agent is as good as fired.

I'm sure he'd be cool if some stranger tweeted his name and his home address for all the world to see out of anger.
Actually, he sounds like a whiney shite bag. I'm sure there is more than what he's telling for the narrative.
Eta: She'll likely be retrained. No one is going to lose their job because one whiney bitch was inconvenienced.

Its stupid but they let the family back on after he deleted it

Lesson here is quit being poor so you don't have to fly southwest.

It pisses me off that people get so upset about trivial shite that they do stuff like what that guy did. It's an inconvenience, not a death sentence. You don't need to try to get someone fired/reprimanded over something so trivial...
At the same time, stupid response by the agent. How did she know that he tweeted that? I know that he told her he was going to but she could have assumed it was an idle threat.. I wonder if the company notified her immediately.

I'm not sure if Southwest is the worst of all the major airlines or if it's United. Either way I stay away from both at all costs.

Dude tried to cut his kids in line. They didn't have his priority. Then he whines about it on Twitter. Bitch move IMHO. Go ride another airline and pay full price for 3 tickets together.

That agent is probably getting fired for that. The tweet was bad, but the news stories about not letting the family board until the tweet was removed it are much so much worse.
They aren't totally clear if the kids had priority boarding (I'm guessing they did not)....so it leads readers to believe that this family was just singled out because of a jerk employee.
UPS, FedEx, General Motors, and even AT&T can teach Southwest a lesson on how to handle dissatisfied customers on twitter.

I'm flying Southwest for the first time this December. Should I expect poor service and a poor experience?

So, she won the insecurity pissing contest.
Lesson: Never bring hashtags to a nametag fight.

What's even more beta is that when the agent declined to let his kids board with him, he essentially implied in the story he automatically got rude with them and started talking about he was going to tweet about it.
Judging from the story, he apparently likes to tweet a lot about stupid airport stuff.
