Here’s a quick one (and I know it’s very early in the day for a blog).
Most of us down under and stranded overseas for that matter would know about the immediate grounding of the Qantas domestic and international fleet in response to ongoing industrial action. Understandably, a lot of people have taken to Twitter to voice their opinions and concerns over the matter and have been very keen to get their message across to Alan Joyce, CEO of Qantas.
Now, a lot of well known or significant people have been able to claim their own name on Twitter without too many problems however there are exceptions.
Including this case.
Unfortunately for Connecticut student, @AlanJoyce copped a pasting from upset passengers who are unable to fly due to the grounding simply for having the same name as the Qantas CEO and people being a bit lazy on Twitter and not verifying that this is the person they are actually after.

This is not the Alan Joyce you are looking for!

If you are really passionate about sending your message to Qantas and the CEO then send it to @QantasAirways. Alan Joyce (the student) has taken the misdirected tweets in his stride but really should not have had to have dealt with this in the first place.
