The Korean Air union has recently posted a picture of a yellow card on their online community, revealing that the company has been giving out warnings to those who do not bow to executives. Accumulated yellow cards affect an employee’s performance assessment, according to the union.

A union member with the ID “macadamia,” posted “A sign of ‘Nutrage’ posted in 2013” on the website Korean AirLine FlightCrewUnion, Saturday. The card specifies how disrespectfully a person bowed to seniors including their name, date, and place.

The periodical published by the flight crew union first disclosed the story in their 96th edition last year. The story, however, went viral after the company’s heiress Heather Cho, stood at the center of criticism for the “nut rage” happening.

Cho ordered a flight back to the gate at New York’s JFK International Airport last week, because a flight attendant gave her a packet of macadamia nuts instead of serving them on a plate.
