Slurping a drink.

I just turn it off and when they start talking I wait until they look at me and then say “I’m sorry, what?”

I know. This test shoulda' been part of the interview process. Put a pilot in a cockpit and give him a snack and see if they clean up after themselves too...

That must work well on the other non-guppies on the fleet. Good thing we only have 330+ guppies.
