Why didn't she use some air sickness bags at least.

I don't think it would have mattered. They had to clean the entire row she was sitting in and she walked out with a giant plastic bag full of her belongings. No idea what happened to her seatmates but they didn't get off the flight.


It sucks but that's the first missed connection I've had in something like 15 years. What was really irritating were the 3 or 4 *******s complaining to the flight attendants and wanting compensation.

It's not their fault and the sure as hell can't do anything to make the plane take off sooner.

I was on a flight where someone **** their pants across from me mid flight . I felt awful for the elderly man.

My "compensation" was 2-3 little bottles of vodka lol.

But the flight attendants showed such compassion, and the male flight attendant gave the elderly gentleman his spare set of clothes. They put him in the last row for the rest of the flight.

Poor guy. That's got to be awful. But if you pick up a stomach bug or get some bad food while traveling, things can go south quickly.

Agreed.

On top of how excellent the crew was, the cabin was dimmed because it was a night flight. So only the row in front, beside and behind knew what was going on. and they weren't even all occupied. So that was good too.

Woke up at 3 a.m.

81 degrees in the Fort

Pull Tires and load trucks.

Peddle something today.

Ready for 5 p.m.

Have a wonderful day!

3am

Monday morning routine.

Half day at work today. I think tomorrow is my last day at the old job. Back to Lyft rides for now.

We'll see what happens but I think I'm a solid candidate for this agricultural economist job. My veteran status has a lot more weight with the federal government as opposed to the corporate world. I have the AGBU degree which is almost dead on. This wouldn't just be another piddly job I don't really want. It would be a new future.

Don't do anything I wouldn't do!

Looking for something new or got hit by a layoff ?

Yes to something new, no to a layoff. The group I was in was terrible and raises haven't even pretended to keep up with inflation. My departure was a vote of no confidence.

You quit before finding a new job ? Bold !

Yep, it had basically gotten that bad. Up at 4:30, meeting at 6AM that had to be prepared for every day, incredibly high stress job with little reward, coworker in the next desk had a self-admitted anger problem, recurring work-related nightmares most nights, and I found myself being short with the kids because of all of it.

It wasn't worth it and being in aerospace, I've always been ready for layoffs. There's a lot saved up outside of retirement so it was time to go for my and my family's sake.

I get it. Toxic work environment is awful.

I once worked at a finance office in a VA hospital. The experience was so bad that I avoided government jobs for a decade.
