Waited in line to talk to "gate agent", turns out was just there to help a Non-Rev!!!
So, waiting on a 3 hour delay right now at LAX. Waiting for line to talk to gate agent , four others in line behind me come and go.
From 9:50am to 10:35 agent is working a single Pax, who based on the conversation and banter is clealy a nonEmployee nonRev, trying to pull schenanigans. They are discussing pass riding back then, how hard it is to ride now, how the nonRev site is messed up, etc.
At 10:35 he walks her across hall to opposite gate and hangs there 15 minutes while rest of us stare agog. When he finally waLks back, he doesn't acknowledge line so I finally walk up, to be told:
"Oh, I'm not working this gate".
"Thanks schmuck!" --- I say (in my head only).
Sigh
