The Anti-Tool(s) from yesterday on ground at CMH regarding a GDP to ORD.

ground- "Eagle XYZ, If you make it quick to the runway, tower says she has a hole she can fit you in."


Not a single raunchy joke was made over the radio, I was impressed.

The tool who left me a big dollop of what looked like creamy Italian salad dressing on my seat...at least it looked like salad dressing. Nuked my pants on the first day of a four-day. Thanks dude.

I used to wonder about this: Do some guys think these are touch screens? But then I saw a mechanic change out a screen, and now I know where all the fingerprints come from.

since it's happened a lot on this recent 4 day -
anyone who makes their call sign plural (e.g. Delta --> Delta's, and sadly I've heard "acey's"). And an ATC nomination for that really surly guy works ATL ground/tower.

Going thru the employee turnstile in Atlanta.
The delta captain who is apparently late to check in for her trip throws a hissy fit because i opened the door to wide to enter. (honestly just opened normally and walked in)- But apparently if i just squeeze between the door and the door frame it will shorten the amount of time it took for door to re close and she would somehow be on time for work.
Hello menopause. Good luck to whoever has her the next 4 days.
