PSA: for those flying out of LAX, avoid American Airline flights. The airport agents are sizing up the bags and forcing you to check with exacting rigor ... miss the good old incompetent days

I’ve had AA make me check my bag that wasn’t oversized, got to the back, and there was empty room in the overheads when we took off. BARELY made my meeting on the other end, checking it probably set me back 20-30 minutes

I flew in/out of LAX last week without issue. You may be having a one off day with a GA on a power trip.

Do NOT claim you are "colorblind" in the workplace. 1. DE&I knowledge is now a core leadership competency. Colorblind claims will earn you the reputation of being DEI-ignorant at best & racist at worst. 2. Colorblindness within the context of workplace diversity is an obvious lie. You do NOT want to be painted as an intellectually dishonest leader. 3. Colorblind claims signal that you lack the leadership skills & vocabulary to have key conversations. Ask questions here, in this safe space.
