I actually had quite a nice conversation with an elite member on a flight from MSP-PDX on the 4 Feb. We kept to ourselves for most of the flight until shortly before decent. I admitted I was an airline employee and was very interested in hearing his point of view in terms of service and he agreed that being an agent, whether in res or at the ATO, must be a difficult job. I do not lie when someone asks me about my occupation, why should I? I am proud of what I do.
