So I'm on the crew bus in Orlando, sharing a ride with a North crew. My captain, making conversation, asks of the Northers, "So, how's it going so far? Any issues with the merger?"

The North pilots get this hangdog look while their lead FA winds up with, "You want to hear about my issues? Well, I've got issues."

I jump in: "Actually, I only listen to my wife's issues."

She stares daggers at me, but I drink for free that night.
