Flying pet peeves

  • tbdbitl said...

    I fly almost every week.

    For the security check in... ALWAYS... Get behind orientals (that's not racist)... They always move the fastest. Avoid lines with kids and old people.

    I am one of the business flyers on my Phone. We pay much more for our seats then you do... If you don't like it, don't listen biggrin

    It's easy to get the talker next to you to shut up. Ignore him, look disgruntled, do something else.

    I rarely see someone who has smelly food. I took 51 flights last year and never saw a corn nut. Every once in awhile I see someone with a Big Mac or some Chinese food, not much you can do about that.

    Best advice... Relax, take a nap, read the paper. It's the only time when no one can email me or call me.... Take advantage of that.

    I fly 80 segments a year. I'm a business flyer too. Your food I can smell without having to see or. Your phone I can hear because you Trump wannabes won't STFU! Believe me, I love the fact that I'm not reachable on a plane. That's why I want Randy the term life seller to leave me the hell alone on that flight!

  • I have always hated having to hear screaming kids on a flight. It drives me crazy and it's not like I can just get up and leave. As a parent, I understand that the change in altitude can hurt their ears. Give them a pacifier to suck on or, if they are older, a piece of gum. Get your lazy butt up and walk with them to try to calm them down. Don't just sit there and ignore them because you have learned how to tune them out.......the rest of us have not.

    Fortunately my greatest flying pet peeve of all time is no longer a concern. Be happy that there is no smoking on planes. It used to piss me off when I would fly and end up at the edge of the smoking/non-smoking seats. I remember on a flight to Australia having to deal with the smokers sitting up in the non-smoking seats coming back to the smoking seats just to smoke. I asked the stewardesses to explain to me why I, being a non-smoker, had to deal with not only the smokers sitting in the smoking section right behind me, but the asses that took the good non-smoking seats smoking like chimneys as well.

  • Flight attendants with fat asses and/or attitude.

    Asses - if your job entails navigating a narrow aisle with strangers on each side, there's a good chance those strangers don't want your ass rubbing up on them repeatedly for hours.

    Attitude - this seems to apply to older women or presumably homosexual men more often than not. If an unpleasant customer is enough to set you off in an attempt to assert your non-existent authority, you probably don't need to be in the service industry, in a metal tube, 30K feet above the ground. I actually saw a guy spill an entire mini bottle of red wine on a passenger, then proceed to yell at the passenger for it and refuse to serve him drinks for the rest of the flight.

  • Bad things:

    1. Drunk and psyched up guy going to Vegas or a bachelor party. Nobody cares where you are going douchebag. Put on your seatbelt and STFU.

    2. Having to take off my shoes going through security. I have on flip flops and I'm white......I'm good bro

    3. Talkative guy/girl. I know you see my headphones in my ears, that means I don't want to talk.

    4. 15 dollar beer at the terminal bar. You got me, I'll take it

    5. The entire Miami airport

    If you wear flip flops to the airport you should be on a no-fly list

    I always try to fly in gym shorts and flip flops unless I'm going straight to a meeting. Fly comfortably, IMO.

    I used to say flying next to fat people was a pet peeve. Now, I'm 6'4 270 lbs, so I am that guy none of you wants to fly next to.

    I fly at least 80 segments a year also.... If I am on the phone there is 1 reason. Because I have to be.

    I'm not on the phone talkin to my boi about how epic our Vegas trip will be. I'm on a conference call, I'm giving direction or making decisions so other people can do their job. Big difference in the trump wanna be loud talker.... That's the guy I want to punch.

    1st... Walking through security in your bare feet... Yuck.

    Also, I don't want to see your stinky bare feet sitting next to me. You're an adult. Wear socks for gods sake!

    I am not real big on the idea of strapping explosives to my person and detonating in a public place in the name of my God....... but if I was gonna do it, it would be in the Miami airport. Fug that place.

    I understand you are a Yankee and don't know what you are talking about, I get that. But down here, we take showers on the reg. That means my feet don't smell. In fact, I wear socks only about 3 months out of the year. Most everyone I know is the same way. That's the guys and the girls. We take showers and wear flip flops and shorts. If your feet smell, you are one hell of a gross person. 0% chance I'm wearing socks on the way to the beach. That's about 99% of the time I fly. See you and your socks with sandals this Summer while you are on vacay. We ain't laughin' with ya, brah.

    When did black socks and sandals ever go out of styleshrug

    It's all good. You wear your flip flops and walk your bare feet on the Philly airport floor pukeface

    Besides, I doubt I ever see you on a plane... They normally put a curtain up that's keeps my 1st class, wine drinking, sock wearing yankee a$$ separated from you flip flop, beer guzzling, mullet headed, confederate economy a$$ peace
