1. United did not brief the defendant supervisor

Very well. To equate looking up something on an iPad to lighting a fire in the bathroom is ludicrous.
IOW United loses out on all accounts.
The cabin crew has a painful win.
So sad the flight crew lost their best years to this, since more than likely United will appeal rather than settle this case, this company is not known to be supportive of their union flight attendants and has a history of animosity.
Sounds like it will be sometime before the fired crew members will be compensated.

On edit: thanks for posting Tex,
