He expected me to just say yes cordially, he got upset, I said hands off.....you snooze you lose, board the plane first like I do, do not make your problems mine.

This may seem harsh....but its reality, live with it.

Im bad but not that bad

how do you know the person didnt arrive late from their previous flight and just bearly made their connecting flight??? Its different if you saw them sitting by the gate or in the PC . Even 1st flights in the morn they can be connecting from The Left Coast

no 1 passenger owns any 1 bin!

BTW Ive been known to by accident (Not) to have spilled a drink or 2 on others
