Rainy day, GRB to ORD

A rainy day for flying. Luggage laying on the tarmac getting soaked. 30 minute delay while boarding trying to get all the stand by folks boarded and in seats. A few bumps in the air flying at 10,000 feet through the storms. We landed in chicago about 30-45 minutes late. Not too bad, and still faster than my car ride into the city. I was about 1 hour late getting into the office. A little late overall, but rather un eventful for air travel.

Oops your seat wasn't really broken enough

On my flight this morning the very green flight attendant (you know the ones that take forever to get through all the things corporate has told them they really must legally say) told a passenger in the exit row of our regional jet that his seat was broken and could he please move back one row. On a regional jet, the exit aisles are the only ones with reasonable leg room. This poor chap was over six foot tall, so leg room really matters. Later during the very long boarding process of finding everyone seats by hand, the flight attendant stuck someone else in the exit row, declaring the seat wasn't broken enough. No apologies to the gent she moved and no attempt to move him back and have this stand by person take the crappy seat in the back. What a gyp!

The great pizza caper

Believe it or not it is 6 o'clock in the morning and the pressing issue
this morning is what wason the pizza last night! And if she should have
had to pick the ingredients off that she didn't want. How rude her boy
was. How bad he is at apologizing all the time. Get a clue girl!! Next
time her boy wants to do domething, either he comes to miami or he flies
her somewhere, but never back to green bay!to top it off he only had a
twin size bed for her to sleep on and her back is now killing her. Her
friend that was actually good enough to take this ludicrous call this
very early morning told her she needs to get a life... We went shopping
he bought me stuff, that was nice. Oh, how shallow and pathetic this
little snivveling bitch is. Quite curious she actually switched to
another language every now and then, something hebrew or middle eastern.


This truly pointless conversation went on for over 30 minutes for every
one in the gate area to listen to...

Row 37, geez I didn't realize they went that far back

Talk about being in the back of the bus, row 37 was almost the last row of the 757 I was on today. I haven't been that far back in the bus since one of my flights to Amerstdam last spring, were I took the complete last row for myself to lie down and sleep.
