Sorry...gotta bitch here for a sceond. I went up to Boston for work related meetings this Monday and I was supposed to come back yesterday. My flight was supposed to leave at like 8:45pm out of Logan (Boston airport) but I got done early so I rescheduled a 4:20pm flight. I get to the airport yesterday really fucking early, like around noon and I figure I'll just take a nap at the gate for a couple of hours, wake up and head home. But then all that bad weather on the midwest was heading east so they start delaying and cancelling flights. My flight gets repeatedly delayed and at about 7:30pm they tell us they are going to go ahead and board and then they come back on 5 mins later and say "nevermind...come back in another 45 mins for another update. be back at the gate at 8:20pm." So I'm like, alright fuck it, I'm gonna go eat. And they had been consistently been a half hour late on their "updates". So I go eat and then head outside for some fresh air and call some people on my cell to bitch about the shit. So at 8:15pm I head back in to the terminal and arrive at my gate at 8:20, like a good little traveller. I walk up to the ticket counter the ask if it's been delayed again and the fucking biatch tells me that it's already boarded and about to leave and it's too late. I'm like...you bitch you told us all to be back at the damn gate at 8:20 and it's fucking 8:20 and here I am and you're telling me it's too late?? So this other guy and I who had done the same thing start getting into it with the lady at the counter and I have to watch the plane leave the gate with my bags and shit on it. So I ream her out but to no avail and there were no hotels cuz they were all booked cuz everyone else's flights had been cancelled. So I had to go wait like an hour in the ticket line to reschedule another flight for 6am this morning. I spent the rest of the night trying to sleep on the ground outside the ticket gate (they wouldn't even let us in the fucking terminal to sleep by our gate) with my laptop as a pillow. I finally made it home at like 9am and fortunately they still had my luggage back in Dallas. That was one thing they didn't fuck up. Oh and not to mention the fact that I didn't to eat much all week and couldn't lift cuz my hotel just had cardio crap in their fitness room. I get back this morning and step on the scale and I lost about 5 lbs. I know it's not much but psychologically it makes me feel tiny and that a lot of the work I've put in to myself just got pissed away. SUCK!!!!!! I'm done now. Going to the gym now to see how much weaker I've gotten. IP: Logged |

Next time your on a plane, take one of the stewardesses up front and give it to her in every crack and crevice while the pilots watch. They don't call it the "cockpit" for nothing. IP: Logged |
