  1. Maybe he’s texting to make sure your luggage arrives on board properly. 🙂

  2. I don’t think AA would like that photo released, eh,mmm, for sure the employee. I don’t think the term "If you have time to lean, you have time to clean" sunk in very well with this guy.

  3. Thank goodness for unions, otherwise he might be in trouble.
    Seriously, his work is about 90 seconds away, looks bad but doesn’t necessarily say much about him one way or the other except he’s younger than 35, probably.

  4. This is the future! Hope the pilot isn’t doing the same thing!!

  5. How a picture can tell a whole story, and how wrong it may be. I only know I don’t know anything about this that can tell me he was playing. And if he was, that he wasn’t allowed to at that precise moment… really.

  6. Oh, the signal of play time comes from the relaxed pose and device held horizontally. He was sitting there all alone for a while before the conveyor truck drove up. I thought it was a strangely peaceful visual more than anything else.

  7. Oh, come on, let’s be easy on him. Perhaps he is a very good responsible worker with a lot of quiet time in between hectic periods of work. He is just efficiently using every single free moment as any business person would. You happened to capture him with your camera but he might have no reason to hide his gaming moment. Of course, it does not look good but we all have these free times at work.

  8. Good observation, anyway 🙂

  9. American Airlines told its unions Wednesday it plans to cut 13,000 jobs from the staff of 88,000 at the nation’s No. 3 airline. I wonder if he will be one of them?
