Because Captain A-hole over here stuffs his roller bag with anything that will fit.
We are universally disliked in hotel concierge lounges because we can’t behave. We use profanity in public and basically don’t give a crap. Think people don’t know we’re paaaahlots.
Well, we stick out like a sore thumb.
Lemme run the variations by you:
I think it’s you buddy. I never have issues with folks.

An IP once told me,
If you met one Ahole today, that guy was an Ahole.
If everyone you met today was an Ahole.....it’s you

Never look at looks. Looks'll fool you every time.

Just to clarify, I was fat shaming pilots and not the military.
Thank you to al that serve.
Just don’t wear shades in the terminal either.

I usta have a pair of prescription "Transitions" that in a well lit terminal would sneak into "Cool" mode, giving me unlimited grief from fellow crew members.

****, I know it would be taken down. I have a picture from 2 years ago, at magic kingdom, of an Express jet pilot in uniform. He had his toe off, how unprofessional!! Screw it, if someone can tell me how to post a personal pic on here I will.

I received assbeatings as a kid. Pretty sure they were all warranted, though some I could call a badge of honor and take pride in having gotten a whooping. Some were outright comical looking back.

Funny thing talking to my kids now that they’re out of college, they say the same thing... and it’s subject of many laughs for them nowadays, just how mine are for me.

Goggles, you can parrot as many articles on what the so-called “experts” have to say, I’ll happily go with what’s worked in my family for generations and it boils down to the old saying “Spare the rod, spoil the child.”
