I figured it was a joke...guess the reference was just too random for me to understand.

To all the FA's that get to KCM podium and have nothing out and then dog through their 50lbs sack to find their driver license. Additionaly, lack the decency to let any one ahead that have their stuff ready. God, I wish they raised the standard bar for hiring FA's.

These must be the same people who watch the grocery clerk ring up $400 worth of crap and only when they see the total amount do they start searching for the debit/credit card/checkbook/etc... Grrr

Let's not forget the toll booths drive up to the pay point, put the car in park, and search the Grand Canyon Bag for a bloody quarter... Then pay the toll, close up the bag, secure the bag, and drive off some time later which seems like an eternity. ARGHHHH!

Oh wait a sec.... As long as they are stopped, let's light a ciggy. But wait, can't find matches or a lighter. After all don't want to soil the lighter that came with the car.

A toll plaza had a huge line of cars. Finally reaching the booth, a frustrated motorist asked what was causing the delay. The toll collector said: "An hour ago, somebody dropped their money and had to pick it up." The driver then demanded to know how that could generate such a traffic backup. The collector replied: "Well, since it happened, everybody has stopped to ask what was causing the delay."

So, to you Bob I award you the tool of the day award. Who's next?
Pretty funny!
