Of course, you may be tools, but you're my favorite bunch of tools.

And me, I'm just here as the one and only neutral observer, of course.

Happy Holidays, tools!
Without this thread how would I know if I am being a tool or not?

I like to think of this thread as spreading tool-awareness.

I just like to think of this thread.

Comes in so handy, to visualize it when you're flying with a guy that's all bent out of shape because they just ran out of cognac in the back. Or if I reach into my bag for my Spiderman toothbrush and Colgate Total (for a total tool).

It also spreads tool-self-awareness, in that case.

Showed up to the jet yesterday. Just missed the crew. The captain left his O2 mask out, a half full water bottle on the floor where my crew bag goes, and a full trash bag overflowing with coffee cups. Nice! Thanks tool, I'll clean up after you.

Thats always a nice touch, having to clean up some ones mess. My favorite is the bottles of chew spit.

Those oh so classic slobs that do not have their mommies there to clean up after them and too lazy and non-caring anyway. Obviously, way to important and busy to pickup after themselves.

Had someone leave melted ice cream all over once. I just kept picturing Pee Wee Herman licking an ice cream cone with one hand and flying with the other.

Last night, SWA flight SMF - LAX, deadheading or commuting pilot, proudly sporting his "ALPA" lanyard and his white shirt minus epaulets (clever disguise - nobody would guess you're a pilot), packed plane, only a few middle seats left, one of them happens to be next to him but it's "taken" by his overcoat, man purse, and other assorted crap. I ask, "Mind if I grab that seat?" He looks up with a "really...?" expression. Yeah, really. He slowly moves his stuff. So slowly, in fact, that I tell him, "Ya know what? Never mind." I head aft to find a different one.

No wonder the public hates airline pilots.

Happy Holidays, buddy.
