Here I am with Human Resource Managers (15,000) of them and USA TODAY reports that United Airlines, in the process of laying off 1600 employees and canceling routes has diverted some $130 million for an executive incentive program!! When I read the paragraph to HR people, there was a cololective GASP in the room. What a disaster for employee morale, customer service, and retention of good people. You can read the entire disheartening story at USA Today.

Travellers should boycott an airline that cares more about executives receiving astronomical pay than they do their employees and passengers.
