Sometimes the customer is not always right; like when an employee of a company is getting verbally degraded by a customer. No one should have to take such a blatant act of completely undeserved disrespect just for the sake of the company. Some people's business is just not worth having because of the overall emotional toll it does on company moral. A definite change needs to be made on how workers,
in the service industry especially, are being treated by the people they are trying to serve.
I applaud Slater for standing up for himself even though he knew his job would be lost when doing so, and not to mention that he grabbed a couple brewskies from the airplane fridge before he made his escape down the emergency slide. Now if only referees started standing up for themselves during ballgames and McDonald's employees started yelling back at the people yelling at them as if the world was about to end because they accidentally got diet instead of regular Coke, then we would really start to see a change in attitudes towards people in the service business.
