Dont get me wrong, it may look better having it all buttoned up, but are we crossing a line of professionalism here? ;)

The company manual doesn't tell you the zip your fly either. So I guess you got that going for you.😉

Yup. I like the idea of carrying around a french press and grounds. I'm a coffee addict and I'm amazed at people's love for Starbucks and Dunkin. People, it's crap.

Their flight attendants also have physical standards haha

Today's tool is another drunk pilot, lost and low on fuel.

A part of me is impressed with that landing!

I pick up USA Today from an airplane seat when someone else is done with it. I take soap home from the hotel room, and even the coffee filter packets. I'll stand in the rain for 20 minutes for a free airport shuttle to avoid paying a 4 dollar taxi ride to the hotel, and you expect me to buy someone a 6 dollar Latte?

Thanks guys. This will be my response. I literally cannot wait to go back to this 'bucks' and see if he remembers me. And I can't wait to NOT buy someone else coffee. :D Unless its for my crew, in which I will make sure he is not there to see it.

Isn't the major flaw here the use of plane water

I've never understood the reason for the tip jar at Starbucks or fast food establishments.

<sigh>

I hope you're just trolling. If you can't see how throwing someone who gets their @ss up at 3 AM to come to airport and deal with a bunch of cranky passengers and crews some spare change or even an entire dollar (God help us) once in awhile, I don't know what to tell you.
