They are clueless sometimes. I once had an agent in PBI ask me if priority really made a difference, after much insisting from me that she add a tag, since she clearly was not going to put one on. I cheerfully chimed "yes it does!" Of course there are many agents in EWR at CO who don't even think to put a priority tag on for a plat.
