What I Hate on Planes

I hate noise. So a little kid singing "'Di Ko Kayang Tanggapin" or whatever the hell April Boy song that was at the top of her lungs the whole flight long while her parents blithely ignore her will piss me off.

I hate people who don't follow safety rules. They're there for a reason jackasses! So people who refuse to shut their phones off until the plane is bloody taxiing already, and dive for them to turn them on literally as the plane hits the ground landing will also piss me off. Of course, people who don't shut their phones off because they're (good god) taking bloody pictures of themselves on the plane will piss me off even more. God, we're so pathetic sometimes; people will use any excuse to show off their stupid 3G phones. Nobody cares asswipes! We ALL have 3G phones!

Waiting in line not knowing what's going on where at a small airport will also piss me off. Note to PAL ground staff: if something went wrong earlier with your check-in computers, and you have some weird emergency check-in procedure going on as a result, please, explain to the people who arrived AFTER the fuck-up eh? Me standing in line while you ignore me, call the names of people who AREN"T in line, and don't explain anything until I snap at one of you helps not my mood. Or my headache.

I love how my job allows me to go around the Pinas. However, the bozo moments I seem to be getting in spades on domestic flights does take something away from the experience.

Oh and P.S., people asking for fragile stickers in fake American accents will also piss me off. Or asking their sister in said accent, "Was that you singing?" Yes, that was her. The whole bloody plane knows it was her. And she was singing a bloody April Boy Regino song so stop trying to pass yourself off as some konyo, moron.

Though, in fairness to planes, fake American accents piss me off in the air and on the ground.

I hate passengers who disregard the seating plan and sit wherever they want, and then pretend they merely got confused when they are gently shooed away by the flight attendant.

I hate flight attendants whose uniforms consist of khaki shorts/mini-skirt and a Bench tee. Are we at the zoo and are you the zoo keeper?

I hate people who scramble for their bags in the overhead luggage as soon as the plane touches the runway. Those bags are NOT gonna run away, people, calm down.

But I do love PAL landings. :)

Sang sulok ka ng Pinas nanggaling? ;)
I totally hate those CP users as well. How annoying is it when right after the flight attendant reminds people to keep their CPs off, a message alert tone sets off. everytime! i swear. miss you!
