Airline Pilot Central Forums

People that treat a moving walkway like it is a portal to an evil alternate dimension. They stop, stutter-step and hesitate like they might be instantly incinerated after walking on. It is just a moving walkway folks, walk normally and you'll be fine.

Nope. They're in the ladies room as well, and I don't want (or need) some cheery employee greeting me while I'm answering nature's call!!!

You shouldn't. Absurd statement.

Waiting in line at Dunking Donuts for a coffee and after about 5-10 minutes woman in front of me turns around to ask if this was the line for Greensboro while showing me her ticket.

I'd have said yes.

Part of me wanted to say yes, just so I could see what would happen when she got to the front of the line, but that probably would've made me a tool in some way.

Something about being at an airport makes people want to stand in a line, even if it will do them no good or they don't know what it's for.

TOTD back in 2004 -

I'm in line at McDonalds in CVG Concourse C when the guy behind me strikes up a conversation...

Him: "Will you be the pilot flying me to Kansas City?"

Me: "No sir, I'm flying to Raleigh"

Him: "Raleigh, North Carolina?"

Me: (thinking a moment) "I don't know, sir."

I guess I was the tool for not knowing where the state lines were.
