Have you tried walking through the connector in terminal C in EWR during a sunny morning? I’m surprised those people trying to sign passengers up for the United credit card aren’t permanently blind from staring into the sun every day.

I am a tail end baby boomer and I will be lucky if I see Social Security and as far as the crybaby kids it's you gen x or millennials or whatever generation you are that do not instill any discipline in your children. They have no respect for their elders or teachers or anyone. I never had "time out' when I was a kid I got knocked out if I got out of line. As far as the multiple wars and debt and loss of religion even though I am not religious myself I am on the same page. I have been working since I was 15 and am now 55 you think I am happy with the ponzi scheme of social security you are mistaken. I better never hear any politician talk about "entitlement" reform. You better believe I am entitled I paid into it I better get it.

In case you were confused, 55 puts you right in the middle of raising the Millennials...being that Millennials are now 18-35.

Cool. I am sure the threat of physical violence on a child never produces any unwanted side affects.

Worked on me. Kids are little ****s these days because they're coddled and parents are in denial. Everyone's kid is an angel and buy them the toy and THEN they'll be good...

Is this becoming an epidemic?

In PHX, literally passed a SKW FO followed by an AA FO on the moving walkways wearing their sunglasses, and the AA FO with a hat on. It felt like a scene from "LA to Vegas".

Then, I arrive home on my commute and there is another pilot in the gate area on his phone texting/facebooking/whatever wearing his shades, too!

Whiskey. Tango. Fox.

BTW, I hear it is always sunny in doucheville.
I saw a pilot who dared to have his hands in his pocket, the chief pilot put him in the front leaning rest position. Put him on KP, I mean reserve for a month.

What about sunglasses inside the hotel?

Denzel wore his in the Hotel in the movie, Flight.

And that there is the mentality that’s a big part of the reason for the societal problems we have today.
