Ah, that old-time customer service!

That's a textbook example of criminal elder/vulnerable person abuse.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

That poor woman. Yeah, this should fall under criminal neglect.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

The guy should have driven to Baltimore where he could have put mommy on a non-stop flight.  It's only about 30 miles from where he dropped her off.  When people have trouble traveling it's always best to go with the non-stop flight even if you have to drive to an airport where you can get one.

I'm no fan of United or airlines in general. And it goes without saying that United has dropped the ball in a major way when it comes to customer care on a number of well publicized occasions. But this one? Meh, I don't see where United should have to own this one.

The woman was bumped from her flight. She was offered a hotel and transportation there and turned it down. She did not call anyone and there is no evidence she made any attempt to contact anyone. This woman had NO BUSINESS traveling alone. The fact that was traveling alone even though she was obviously ill equipped to do so is not the fault of United. Its the fault of the asshole that dropped her off at the airport. An airline, and numerous other service business', do assume a certain amount of liability when they agree to provide their services to a customer. But that doesn't make them responsible for assuming 100% of all responsibility for the customer. You can't just dump a person off with the airline and expect the airline to be their dad and make sure they eat when they're hungry and tie their shoes and don't stay up too late reading comic books.

That's not how they advertise it.

The things they say are another one of those items that they can't be held 100% responsible for, ofc.

I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

She didn't have any but I doubt she put up much of a fight.
