Making threats of termination rarely works. As I understand it the ramp workers in Denver, were working in sub-freezing temperatures and were working a bit slower than usual due to the weather. They were being pressured to work faster (if you have ever worked in subfreezing temps, working faster is not possible). Apparently it was in the neighborhood of 120 ramp agents in Denver who said, take this job and shove it!
Pressuring ramp workers to work faster is a recipe for disaster. It can lead to an accident. The 737 MAX debacle was a classic example of a great company prioritizing investor profits over operations. It appears SWA may be making a similar mistake.
