Saw an RJ Captain on the mile lone escalator full of people in Montreal, who had duck taped up a broken section of his kit bag handle. Of course full escalator full of people, and this guy was almost to the top, and it broke.
Made my morning, but he gets tool award for almost hurting 30 people, when it finally got to the bottom the entire thing broke apart, I bet no tape for that.

the guy all over the news who got a nasty-gram from the FAA for filming the flock of birds hitting the plane on departure out of LAX and whining that he has flown 3 million miles and wasn't breaking any laws. If iPads were dangerous 10,000 planes would have crashed during the course of my interview....

90% of the time there is someone standing in the middle of the concourse or elsewhere. It is an excellent opportunity to ask, "May I help you find something?"
My 81 year old Mom still travels and needs all the help she can get at out stations.
Try helping these people rather than being annoyed at them. It's good PR - for ALL of us - and it can be quite rewarding.
Not saying you're a Tool, but your comment is pretty Toolish.

I say (with a smile), "Excuse me, may I get by on your left?" and magically, they move over, smile and say, "Oh, sorry about that."
You guys remember that without all types of passengers (customers) there would be no need for planes or pilots, right?

I'd nominate pilots and passengers in the jetway that walk right by a single parent with two bags, balancing a crying baby and trying to reassemble a friggin stroller designed by NASA. 30 seconds of help can make it all a lot easier.....
