Years earlier, she had asked a boss if he would let his children fly on a plane with the litany of flaws and non-conformances he was urging her to “pencil-whip”: “Cindy, none of these planes are staying in America, they’re all going overseas,” he retorted, much to her horror.
username checks out. You should leave the critical thinking to people who aren’t born yesterday
critical thinking is when you decide not to question stuff because you like the narrative
critical thinking is when you can differentiate a multimillion dollar corporation defending itself vs. pilots and crew who have nothing to gain and a lot of risk coming out about how bad their ex-employer screwed up and swept it under the rug. this sort of stuff is not uncommon from corporations.
I am more likely to believe that Air India was screwing up because they have a history of this. If a lot of people complain about smoke coming out of places it shouldn’t be, then i would listen to them rather than the owner who pretends everything is fine.
