That sure worked out well, didn't it?
This, going all the way back to 2012, is what caused the Dao incident and much of United's loss of business. It can not be overemphasised that United will continue to fail as a business until it allows employees to use their common sense to address the problems that occur day in, and day out, in a complex network like United's.
