Example:
One Capt. would try to avoid flying into clouds because he didn't want to hit any angels. (totally serious)
Who wouldn't become a d!ck after a day of hearing sh!t like this?
Back in the day I heard of a guy that brought his dog to work for a trip because it was his “emotional support animal”. I wouldn’t have wanted to be either the chief pilot or the union rep involved in that one.
