Slater is alleged to have then activated the plane’s inflatable emergency slide, grabbed two beers from the galley, then slid down the chute, the official said.

Sounds like the flight attendant and the passenger in question were both being asteriskses.
Gotta admit there was a sense of style to that ragequit though

Yeah that's definitely one of the best way to make an exit.

Is it bad that kind of makes me want to fly jet blue more now?

Seriously, did they really have to go arrest him at his home?

Sheesh.

Agreed.

I once overheard a funny conversation at a bank. A young woman was trying to deposit her last paycheck, but there was something wrong with it (I didn't catch what). The teller was explaining that she needed to go back to her employer to fix the issue, but apparently she'd had some epic "I'll see you in hell, you *******"-type quit, and was really frustrated that she had to go back and ask for another last paycheck.

But yeah, I'm sure hers wasn't as awesome.

The official said quite a lot.

He stole beer.

Plane beer even, that's worth like ten times the amount of normal beer

Gawker unearthed what appears to be Slater’s MySpace page, which mentions overcoming alcohol and substance abuse, and includes comments about how he ‘loves to max it out with trips around the world, sometimes on a moment’s notice!’

Former drunk and junkie serving food and drinks inside a cylindrical tube 35,000 ft. in the air and having to deal with people which in of itself is a stressful situation as exemplified by the aforementioned article (he broke-down)? :huh:
Code to the left of him, code to the right of him, code in front of him compil'd and thundered. Programm'd at with shot and $SHELL. Boldly he typed and well. Into the jaws of C. Into the mouth of PERL. Debug'd the 0x258.

I would imagine they are most upset about the issues that inflatable slide made. Those things probably take forever to repack, or are very expensive to replace.

Not to mention they've gone pretty extreme when it comes to security, they feel the need to show the public that there's zero tolerance to shenanigans of any kind

Yea, that was pretty awesome, but I don't think it counts as a rage quit.

Clearly that was a well thought out, and executed, plan.


And I'd totally hit that HPOA ;)

Can you blame the guy though?

I hope to join these men and women one day when I quit my mundane job for something better. Hmm need to be more creative though as the scales has been raised. So much for my future plans of dancing to the Perfect Weapon, doing Parkour, and then moonwalking right out of the office.

Wtf. Criminal mischief I completely agree with. Reckless endangerment? Perhaps the title of that offense is misleading, but I fail to see who was endangered or how since the plane had landed.

I'll look at the state definitions of these offenses tomorrow. It may very well be that they don't all apply very well to Mr. Slater's conduct. I believe it's standard procedure to charge everything that might be remotely applicable at first, and narrow it down from there.

As I said, it's about airport security, they're doing everything they can to make sure everyone's too scared to cause problems at an airport.

Did you see the gash on his forehead? Yeah, he was pissed because some douche hit him in the head with a bag and then cursed at him instead of apologizing. I'd be pissed too. But I wouldn't quit, I'd just press assault charges.
2010-08-11, 6:41 AM #31
They were talking about it on the local news this morning. I believe the Reckless Endangerment charge is from the slide. Apparently they're deployed with a semi-explosive force. Ground crew could have possibly been injured if they were near the door.

I actually quit a job in a similar fashion once, but I took a bottle of Maker's Mark instead of beer.

I didn't get arrested, though.

2010-08-11, 12:42 PM #36
In similar fashion? Are you just referring to stealing the booze?
2010-08-11, 12:45 PM #37
I hope he means that he used to work in a bar with a slide.

Yeah I'm afraid we didn't have a slide or anything. But I did nab the bourbon and walk out the back door.

Turns out the whiteboard thing is a hoax.

She now has several Facebook fan pages, including "1,000,000 Strong for Jenny DryErase to Pose in Playboy," which has more than 800 members.

LOSER!

And wow, that audition photo of her is very unflattering.
