This took place at LaGuardia Airport baggage area, my husband placed his luggage on the counter and needed to place his tag, he was handing it to the lady customer service and it fell and she rolled her eyes!! Like saying really!

Her facial expression of no patience and I saw it clear as day!! and she knows I saw her. It was Friday afternoon about 4:00 pm or so. She was a female black lady.

If you don't like your job and people, don't work in customer service!!!

I don't understand, how hard is it to be nice? I rate this as a 2 star but gave a 4 star because I like SW airlines and never had an issue, yes there have may have been a time or two we seen a bit of the attitude and baggage ck in and its been females but, this time it bothered me.
