Im not saying all gate agents are good, some are just immature.
But how many of you that were just bashing them have actually done their jobs?
Lumping them all together and saying they are just on a power trip is retarded at best.
and the attitude of, "the plane is on the gate, its under my control" Is 100% correct. They are responsible for the flight. Im not saying this one wasnt being a douche, or it was or was not weight critical.
Im just pointing out that Alot of Gate agents, specially here at BNA will go and do go out of their way to help flight crew.
