It was 30 minutes of how we don't have time to serve coach, while they were literally standing in the back complaining. Its a good thing they don't fly WN with all the drink coupons flying around, and the requirement to ask every customer if they would like "anything else". Why is this a big deal on AA 737-800 with about 5 rows and not a big deal on WN with a whole coach section?
"We don't have time". Typical laziness. It's too bad these new hires who are awesome and know the rules by heart are brainwashed into being lazy/going against company policy by the senior dragons.

Yup, that's what I love, it takes less time to just hand out a free drink than it does to set up the device, swipe the card etc.
