As Americans struggle to cope with their flight plans being delayed and/or canceled, one can always rely on Twitter to turn a bad situation into a joke.
Sam Brinton, the former Office of Nuclear Energy deputy assistant who was fired after being accused of stealing luggage from two different airports, has become the subject of a new set of memes alongside Southwest Airlines.
Maybe these jokes will help some people get through the dreaded wait at their local airport.
My Southwest flight was cancelled, but I didn’t check any luggage, so I guess I don’t have to worry about Sam Brinton at least. This video is a nice consolation while I re-book. #SouthwestAirlines #Southwest #SamBrinton #TheGrinch pic.twitter.com/4QFXIV4Zdk
