Something in the LA Times article caught my attention ..."battered against an arm rest and dragged off the plane after he refused to give up his seat to
an off-duty United employee." Were these "off-duty employees" the same term as employees that have to work the next day or were they truly off-duty employees that just wanted to go home??? Are we 100% sure passengers were kicked out for attendants that had to work the next day or was it the gate agent trying to get his or her friend home and screw a paying passenger? I don't know the answer.
