Had a dumb a$$ Jungle Jet Ace of the Base (and Ace is spelled with two S's) type stop me while deplaning the other day in RDU. I always travel in my monkey suit... Easier passing through security overseas.

After the first sentence out of Junior's mouth, I presented, for his purusal, assuming at least ELP 4 proficient, both my boarding pass, and e-ticket receipt indicating full fair... not even ZED.

To which I told him perhaps it is he who should be thanking me for making his paycheck possible.

After a half way round the world flight to get home, I'm not very sociable. but I do thank the crew for a good ride when I get off the jet.
