It's like anything else. You get someone who has done 5 of these, you might get it through. If you get someone who did 5 today, probably not. In the former circumstance, however, just don't reroute it because they will probably put you back in line and limit the ticket.
And my weekend was fine, but long. I think I left my house about twice a day, mostly for coffee and bagel runs, and was otherwise involuntarily sitting in front of a computer. Thanks for asking.
