1. Are you a member in every possible frequent flyer program?
No. I'm a member of one, and will go out of my way to fly with that airline, even if it means paying a ridiculous amount of money for a fare.

2. Do you get the sweats and does your heart rate increase when you notice miles from a recent trip haven't posted to your account?
No. I call my "special" number (which I've memorized) on my "special" card, and try to get it sorted out, dropping mention of my status a few times if needed. If this doesn't work, I call up my "angel" and she works it out for me.

3. Do you get excited to compare your status with others, while in Hotel lounges?
No. There's no comparison.

4. Do you have color coded files, neatly organized, at home for all the programs you're a part of?
See #1.

5. Do you plan flights on carriers that have mileage promotions and that is not the most convenient or cost effective route?
Yes. See #1.

6. When it comes time to get your preffered status renewed, do you get nervous that it ma not go through?
No I've made top-tier by March. But I continue to fly the airline anyway, aiming for that million-mile status.

7. Is your preffered status title more meaningful to you than your job title?
What job?

8. Does every single one of your co-workers, friends, and family members know that you are top-tiered status on a any given airline?
They don't understand...

9. Is us mail, that you receive, from airlines the very first that you open and read, even the small print?
No, I check the Website every day, and I've already signed up for that promotion.

10. The moment you receive your personalized luggage tags, denoting your preferred status, do you run straight to your luggage and attach them??
No. I complain that they have a stupid slogan, are ugly, and look cheap. And I say I'll keep my tags from 1998 that I got when the Super-Secret Airline Club still existed.

So, as you can see, I am clearly not a mileage addict. Not even close...
