When you are at the gate listing for a jumpseat/non-rev with the gate agent, and the passenger who can't just wait in line right behind you, but instead comes up right beside you and leans on the counter and eavesdrops on your conversation with the gate agent, and makes themselves a part of the conversation.

We learn how to stand in line in first grade tool.

TOTD: Dude on arrival into BOS checking in with speed assigned in "Kah-notts"... you know who you are. I almost donned the mask to silence my aggravation.

Already received their TOTD award circa several months ago. But a worthy nominee nonetheless.

Sometimes the "k" isn't silent. It depends on how butthurt the other guy gets when you pronounce it.

Oh, HE's prioritized. Trust me, or, ask the rest of the LAX FO gang. Or, you could peruse our open time.

Guy I was flying with last week was in a hurry for his commute so we are doing 320kts (I'm flying).. Tracon slows us down to 250 early on the arrival and he reads it back "ohhhh shucks guys.. Alright slow to 250 KAH-nots".. I wanted to just jump out an exit right then... He then proceeds to say "do you mind just doing 275 or so?".. Dude kiss my ass.
