Ya, that's pretty bad, but when you don't commute and don't non-rev, it's likely not at top of mind because it's not something you deal with. I think for many, it's not that they don't care, it's just that it's not something they think about as often as those who live the commute/non-rev life. I've had gate agents open the door when I saw a JSer run up to the window because I truly want to get people on. But I freely admit that at 15-20 prior, it's often not at the top of my mind. If I remember, I certainly make the walk and I'm actively trying to incorporate the walk into my routine.
