    1. If it were me I’d be disappointed they didn’t use my skeleton for the display. Seems kinda thoughtless

      From what I can read zooming in on the text it looks like these are ramp agents that passed but not necessarily on the job, which would make a lot more sense.

    3. Those are just store-bought decorations. They’d use their real skeletons if they had a backbone.

      OP’s title is disingenuous. It’s people who have worked at the airport and who have also died. Not DIED WORKING AT THE AIRPORT. Christ. At first I was horrified but after reading the framed text it is clearer.

      They did not lose their lives at work and if you read the display instead of taking a picture and posting it online you would understand that.

    6. The concept of día de los muertos is that the spirits are summoned so it’s kinda funny they’re being forced to come back to work even after dying, no days off

    7. the plastic skeleton is a little distasteful but i like the rest of it lol. maybe if they painted the skull like the other ones it would be a little less … halloweeny?
