GanglyKhan 11/29/18 11:03:42 AM #1:	Well? - Results (9 votes) Yes 11.11% (1 vote) 1 No 88.89% (8 votes) 8 A Southwest Airlines gate agent is accused of being awful in front of a 5-year old girl and on social media because of her unique name. The girl's mother says the agent made fun of the name and even posted a photo of her boarding pass on social media for others to chime in. Five-year-old Abcde Redford pronounces her name "ab-city." "The gate agent started laughing, pointing at me and my daughter, talking to other employees. So I turned around and said, 'Hey if I can hear you, my daughter can hear you, so I'd appreciate if you'd just stop,'" Traci Redford said. Redford and her daughter were catching a flight home to El Paso, Texas a few weeks ago from John Wayne Airport in Orange County. Abcde lives with epilepsy, so the Redfords always pre-board. "While I was sitting there, she took a picture of my boarding pass and chose to post it on social media, mocking my daughter. It was actually brought to my attention by somebody who had seen it on Facebook and reported it to Southwest Airlines. And after two weeks of doing a formal complaint, Southwest hadn't done anything," said Redford. Southwest Airlines gave us this statement: "We extend our sincere apology to the family. We take great pride in extending our Southwest Hospitality to all of our Customers, which includes living by the Golden Rule and treating every individual with respect, in person or online. The post is not indicative of the care, respect, and civility we expect from all of our Employees. We have followed up with the Employee involved, and while we do not disclose personnel actions publicly, we are using this as an opportunity to reinforce our policies and emphasize our expectations for all Employees." The employee in question didn't answer our request for comment. Redford said she's using this experience as a lesson for her daughter. "She said 'Mom, why is she laughing at my name?' And I said, 'Not everyone is nice and not everyone is going to be nice and it's unfortunate.'"

GanglyKhan 11/29/18 11:04:34 AM #2:	Naming your child "ab-city" is a smart move, makes sure that they stay fit and healthy. Can't be called "ab-city" and be fat.

_AdjI_ 11/29/18 1:26:45 PM #11:	StoneRevolver posted... Unique is fine. Utterly off the wall is kinda odd and screams for attention. Pretty much. Having grown up with the most popular name for boys in my area for my birth year (in my parents' defense, they tried to pick something unique, and it just ended up being unusually popular that year because apparently everyone else had the same idea), and having to deal with many other people in my cohort with the same name, it gets a little old. At the same time, though, avoiding that would not be worth having to explain how to spell my name every single time I provide it because it's some bizarre alternate spelling that replaces every vowel with a Y. <cite>_AdjI_ posted [p:913249942] in Would you ...

Lil_Bit83 11/29/18 5:21:17 PM #28:	GanglyKhan posted... Naming your child "ab-city" is a smart move, makes sure that they stay fit and healthy. Can't be called "ab-city" and be fat. In all seriousness though, I just feel bad for the daughter. The parent(s) made a poor decision there. Unique names are whatever, but trying to be "cute" with it just backfired for them hard. Its not even cute. Its made out of fail, and laziness and pure maliciousness on the parents part. --- I'm a chick <cite>Lil_Bit83 posted [p:913262892] in Would you ...
