That resulted in a very aggressive response from the supervisors there.
Sometimes I think that you and gsoltso don't realise that what happens at
your airport on
your shift doesn't happen everywhere. As passengers we have no idea what the response may be, and what may set one person off on a tirade.
(And by the way, I have been to every corner of AL over the years, and been to many towns and places even people in AL find remarkable. I stopped flying in/out of AL whenever possible and drive from neighbouring states, or even MSY for Mobile area)
