The best was when I was running late and boarded with Y. I saw an open spot in the overhear and before I could get my bag up there, some A___hole in 5B, (I was in 5A) says "these bins are for FC only." I replied "I think it's great that someone is looking out for our interest, would you mind getting up so I can get to my seat." The nearby passengers got a good chuckle out of it.
Needless to say, I politely asked him to get up each time I felt the need to stretch my legs during the flight.
nice....
I have a 7 segment trip in (my, before you ask) paid int'l C/dom F in november. Im 20 but look 16-17ish. Im gonna try to guess how many boarding line/lounge/overhead bin comments I get, and well see how many actually happen. I need to practice to get my sarcasm levels to that of the quoted story(exceptional stuff btw) so I can make things a little more interesting. Im generally very quiet but have no problem being an ... back to other asses. I guess I should dress in old, used jeans, flip flops, and a tye-dye t-shirt to try and get provoked the most? Should be fun times
