Leaving JFK on 956, we were on Ground frequency, and due to the huge backlog were kept on it until close to tower departures...

JFK Ground: LHxxx continue taxi, follow United 956 on taxiway x
JFK Ground: LHxxx do you copy?
JFK Ground: ... is LHxxx listening to?

2 mins later:

LHxxx: JFK Ground what is our status please?
JFK Ground: Where the hell have you been damit?
LHxxx: We were on tower, seeing what our queue number was...
JFK Ground: Did I tell you to bug the tower? He's got enough work to do without YOU adding to his workload until I TELL YOU TO... Now FOLLOW UNITED 956...
LHxxx: Follow United 956.
JFK Ground: Jesus Christ that was hard.



I was wetting myself in 17A getting a very dodgy look from 17B
