There is also a consensus among some, that regardless of what we do, UA has become the poster child for what is wrong, both accurate and perceived about the airline industry.

Yes, we have to do better as a company. I can assure you, I have sent pics of those t-shirts to several people within the airline who can help to address these things.

Having said that, the t-shirts are ridiculous. But, maybe part of that is because I'm frustrated that our hard and soft product isn't better. I'm just a pilot, and the only thing I can do is make those above me aware of the issues, and try to instill in the crew, a sense of pride.
