  1. That's uncalled for. If you're referring to the situation my daughter was in with a flat tire in a "no go zone"... Being judgemental about a female's trust in their gut instinct to discern if they are safe or not will only lead to more young ladies getting hurt because they have been ridiculed by people like you to not trust their gut instinct and remove themselves from possibly dangerous situations. We weren't in either situation... Yeah....I get it, maybe this employee should have learned that lesson and let his "flight" (over fight) mechanism kick in. I guarantee, if he was a real stewardess, that's exactly what would have happened! [You know your attitude to try to pin some racist undertones to various safety situations is a sore spot with me]
  2. Or he hates his job as a subsidiary employee to the airlines and says: "WTF, let me try to tune this ridiculous customer up." Of course only to fail. 😆 I think people know. Just wasn't captured. I find it hard to believe the employee, who's dealing with 1,000s of patrons a day is the initial aggressor here.
  3. By getting hit first? I detect some jealousy... Wouldn't you love to be assaulted by a stewardess.
  4. Disagree. Defending yourself isn't going on offensive. He took a sting and used it as excuse to unleash. Both were making exchanges before that. And why are you using the sexist term "stewardess" to diminish the capacity the employee is in to enforce the rules. Do you want to sit in a wheelchair after someone puts their nasty luggage on it? Why was he using a wheelchair to push around his luggage?
  5. Just like hockey. 5 both for fighting, Langley +2 for instigating, +2 for roughing.
  6. Yup... Langley got violent first and then when the employee connected, he used it as an excuse to unleash. Langley totally the instigator...
  7. Only ONE answer, the power of beer!
  8. He wasn't. Subsidiary employee from what I read. They fired him too. United Ground Express, contractor? https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/former-nfl-player-brendan-langley-arrested-united-worker-fired-brawl-n-rcna30256 Langley was using a wheelchair to move his luggage. What a creep.
  9. Seems like it would be common knowledge. If you got there 4 times and still lost... You are doing something majorly right as opposed to the common thinking that you are doing something wrong. Everyone... Should know it. Adversity builds strength and longevity.
  10. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/vicky-white-casey-whites-indiana-motel-room-now-waiting-list-higher-pr-rcna30120
  11. Yeah. Looks like he threw the first one too.
  12. "The customer is always right" is actually the opposite. Usually always wrong. Looks like Langley threw first punch and then cries like a baby: "You see that!" When he got stung. Yeah... Stupid for the employee to advance on him after he was hit. Gotta back off. Hope he doesn't get fired, looks like Langley deserved it. Probably why Langley got arrested, for being the instigator.
  13. 72°-75° in Summer. 65°-68° in Winter. I have it programmed to use a 3° SetPoint w/the new WiFi thermostat the last 6 years. With this thermostat, that means in sumnmer A/C will kick on 3 WARMER than desired room temp and kick off @ desired room temp. In winter, the furnace will kick on 3° COLDER. So, it's kicking on @ 62°-65° winter and 75°-77° summer... [IT'S actually better mechanically/efficiency for an HVAC unit (especially A/C) to run on/off longer periods of time, rather than short cycling all the time... But modern thermostats will have time delay or a program feature to eliminate a short cycle and allow the compressor/refrigerant to "recover."]
  14. You must be a hard-core Hanks fan. That was one movie we almost walked out of. 😏
  15. Joe Versus The Volcano Hank's version of: "13 Seconds" 😆... Even the best one's out there throw down a clunker/steamer!
  16. @ work today: "It takes a Village" 😏
  17. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride!
  18. #1: Burl Ives, "The Big Country"
  19. Studies have shown that the brain isn't fully developed until 26 and... 4 years ago @ 22 she was a "chief" and was riding around making sure that others were doing their job. Does a 22 year old "chief" even know what the job entails? And she's a supervisor? Huh?
  20. Twin Fair was decades ahead of its time (Super Walmart/Target)! ...With groceries, everything concept
  21. Even better in 1960's... Didn't even have to be a stinking cop, just know one. LoL... My father was clipping parked cars in Sloan in 1970. Had an APB out for him. Ran into a friend at a bar... Told him: "You better go home, they are looking for you in Sloan." 😬😬😔
  22. Showing my age... But growing up, we'd go to the games. Sit in Oranges, where my vertigo was honed at an earlier age! Free tickets... Collect the sides from Dairylea milk cartons... Trade them in for the cheap seats.
  23. Yeah... So Putin is obfuscation communism, fascism and the complicated history w/The Ukraine... He's really a fascist. Kinda why the far right, populist like Trump, et al... Are pro-Putin. Just like 1930s... We had our businesses, Henry Ford, Charlie Lindbergh's align themselves with the fascists, Hitler...
