A few weeks ago I thought I was about to witness a fight due to someone telling someone else to turn off his phone. I started to pull out my digital camera to record the event but couldn't decide if I needed to keep it off, too.

There is nothing worse on an airplane that someone talking loudly on a cell phone. No one cares about there conversation but they just have to speak real loud so everyone can hear what they are talking about. Its a freaking cellphone not a can on a wire. Why do they have to speak so loud?

As for the rest of you law and order types, I agree that rules are rules. But have you BEEN at sfo on a busy afternoon? Planes regularly close the doors and sit at the gate to count for on-time departure but then sit and sit and sit. Yes, I was technically breaking the rules but we werent even backing up yet.
As I said, I was speaking very quietly and not bothering anybody other than, apparently, the asshat sitting in front of me.
You know, if I had been THINKING, I would have picked up the airphone and loudly continued my conversation....why is it you only think of the REALLY cool things to do the next day!?!?!!?

I truly question if you ladies and gentleman in here are adults. Were you just raised by wolves is that it?
Really grow up. Kicking the seat - Boy now that truly was grown up. You're an executive right?
