So why do you continue to date them?:confused:
And quit hitting on the PC agents.:rolleyes:

Red Coats do different things in different cities. At SFO, Red Coats are not part of the actually working staff but watch over the whole area. They may jump in and work a flight or issue a ticket but for the most part they are floating psuedo supervisors. If a customer has any issues that need to be taken care of, Red Coats are called upon to deal with the customer one-on-one so that the agents can continue to work the line.

Even if he's just a "pseudo supervisor," please tell Marty we say hi.
