Setting the bed side alarm clock to go off 5 minutes after I leave the room for a "Oh GOD early" van has always been a personal favorite.....especially when the band of merry drunks/party goers reside just next door. Finding the most ridiculous Techno/Dance/House/Break-Beats station (Tejano Hair Metal, a close second), and turning the preset volume up all the way as to let the magic happen when the clock strikes "go-time".
Childish??? Maybe.......Pure satisfaction in making up for the lose of sleep the night prior?? Absolutely!!

I had some Aer Lingus Folks partying next door when I had an early get up. I found the hardest Rap station on the radio, set the radio alarm for 30 minutes after I left and hung the Do Not Disturb sign on the door.

Been there done that. It helps to place the radio right up against the offender's wall. The two times I've done it I also placed a pillow over the radio to limit collateral damage to other neighbors. I set the alarm to go off just as I'm leaving the room so I can enjoy hearing firsthand that my petty yet quite satisfying juvenile response is in fact effective.

You should have asked, "Can you put the captain on the phone please? We've got an early van tomorrow. Oh, and Suzy, are you gonna be the 'A' again tomorrow?"

Well for all you complaining about pax that talk to you when js'ing, today I sat down in my seat, got up to take my coat off in the overhead bin and the chick next to me goes "oo! We have a pilot in the middle of the plane too!...you are a pilot right?"
Well, rather then blowing her off with a "no **** sherlock, i just dress like this for fun" type answer, I very graciously answered the question and we struck up a 3 hour conversation. The trip was done in no time. The best part? She was a daaaaaaaang cute European girl who asked for my number at the end.
I win
Or maybe I'm TOTD for giving her my number in uniform? I donno...don't worry, I kept it professional...until I was out of my uniform
