Well, if he does want to go to delta, he just ruined any chance after stating he doesn't want to go in this video. Hope he loves that job enough to stay there an entire career.

TOTE is the jerk who loudly stated, "Oh great, employees get to get on the elevator before us" at terminal C in EWR . Really, asswipe?! Do you want a special elevator for pax with status? A special elevator for "the help?"
The UAL FO I was on the elevator with said she's noticed more brazen behavior lately and that it was going to be a long summer. I said to be sure to thank Oscar! |

The worst part about that video is the very beginning when Capt America says "I don't work". The rest was just painful

Does he mean he doesn't get called a lot? Because during my busiest of days I don't have to do one quarter of the stuff he did. He seems to work a lot harder than an airline pilot.

Nope. He was insinuating that his job is so awesome and fun that it's "playtime" and can hardly be called "work".

Looks like being professional means wearing Bluetooth ear buds wherever you go.

Thanks for making us look like shallow, self-absorbed doosh bags.

To be fair, the AirPods actually offer great mic quality. I can only assume he wore them for the mic pickup for his video.

I nominate the Sky West hero in LA today. We were taxiing on E for runway 24L. I see a Mormon Air Force "9" approaching with haste on the perpendicular taxiway. Now anyone that has a North route clearance at LAX knows that they are supposed to hold short of taxiway D without further clearance. Well Captain America proceeded to blow right through it. My usual "clear right" dared not leave my tongue. I looked left to my skipper and shouted "he's not stopping", eyes wide with fear. My skipper applies the brakes with enough force to even jostle the most seasoned of cat wranglers. We look at each other in bewilderment as the two Sky Gods pass without slowing. The normal LAX chatter is broken with a condescending "really guys..." from the mighty "9" skipper. Another look of bewilderment was shared between me and my left seat companion. Did that really just happen? Did this regional "mainline" crew almost cause a collision and try to blame it on us? Surely this couldn't be so. After a moment of shock, I snapped out of it. I realized that, alas, it was a Sky West crew and this was a reality. We throttled up and I continued my before takeoff check list, my peripherals still on high alert for any sneaky Canadian regional jets that may be lurking.

Tough crowd. Were some feelings hurt? Personally, I thought it was entertaining reading.

No. After a microscopically thorough injestion of the unfortunate series of events, I determined in a most assuredly steadfast conclusion that the author of said superfluous exposition had not entertained or informed as intended. Instead, the prose was flowery, some would say akin to a bouquet of violets, in a fashion that distracted from the intent instead of complimenting. I am, however, most sure of being unsure how a critique of a post translates to having one's feelings hurt.
With that said...

Haha! Well, it wasn't quite THAT bad. "Purple Prose" is in the eye of the beholder, btw. So what one may consider over the top, others simply consider, um, colorful. ;)
With that said... THIS is the whole story reduced to it's basic essence. :D |
TOTD...the middle-aged male wheeling a doggie stroller through T5 at JFK, inviting people to pet his mini collie. Of course he ends up on my flight sitting one row ahead of me with the dog out on his lap. Doesn't matter if the passenger next to him is allergic, doesn't like dogs OR doesn't like getting dog hair all over their clothes. Oh, and he's so special he had to pre-board and be the first one on. Yay, ADA!!! :rolleyes:

Because the the ADA has never done anything good? Well, except for my brother who has CP and many of his friends. Get mad at the stupid, inconsiderate people, not the protections that actually do some good. Yes, it needs some tweaking, but thank God it's there. Especially since as an elderly person, you will need it one day. .02 Oh, and whats the relevance, male or female, old or young? Reading your complaint reminds me of ya-poo.😝 |

Besides, what you describe has zero to do with the ADA as it doesn't really sound like a bona fide service animal, this sounds like the "emotional support" that is not an ADA law nor definition, and up to the airline. |
Did I say the ADA hasn't done anything to benefit people with disabilities? Seriously?!
Emotional support animals are one of the biggest scams today. Get a note from some sham website, skip paying a pet fee to carry your pet on board and then subject everyone around you to said pet that is allowed on your lap the whole flight. Credentials can't be questioned, passenger can't be questioned---it's a win-win for the scammers and a lose-lose for the airline and fellow passengers and crew. |
