Same for elevator doors.

Excuse me while I whack you my rollarboard since you won't move.

Idiots.
This used to be so much worse in the days of passengers waiting in the gate area. As soon as they leave the jetway, stop and hug. MOVE you idiots!

I saw an American Eagle pilot a few years back wearing his uniform with jogging shoes. No lie!

Stand in front of the doors at a NY or Chicago subway stop you are doomed.

Especially...

People on the 1st floor getting onto the elevator BEFORE allowing anyone coming down to get off of it.

This where a roll-aboard can be quickly turned around to provide a convenient snow-plow or cow catcher type device.

As well as things like bathrooms that done have a door but the mini-maze to get in and out and it's not wide enough for two.

It's a SIMPLY concept, it's EASIER for people to get INTO a smaller space if people are allowed to come OUT of said smaller space.

I often wish they had those baggage carts you can rent but come with an affixed cattle catcher or battering ram on the front. That way you could walk through the airport pushing it with one and dragging your roller with the other.

Scroll to about the :36 mark, it's what it would look like as you're trying to get to your commute;

Was pretty funny to watch the gate agent chew out a group of PSA recruits in front of other passengers for missing their flight out of CLT. Turns out they were late getting in and decided to stop for food instead of going straight to the airplane. Too bad it was the last flight of the night...

How do a group of "pilots" not know that you can't hold an airplane full of people 10min prior to takeoff so that your buddies can grab a hot dog? C'mon guys..

You mean PSA didn't assign a "Snack Mom" for proper nutrition?

Is this going to affect them receiving their participation trophies?
