Hey Straaight,
You obviously are a glutton for punishment, as Busdrvr has been thrashing your sorry a$$ (sorry Bus, not literally I know... that's his partner's job
) for 4 pages or so now.
And you don't know the first thing about United Airlines. All you do is come here with your pathetic stereotypes and make a fool of yourself.
FYI, we don't complain about our meal choice because we select it via computer. We ALWAYS get our choice.
I feel very sorry for the people who actually have to work with you at American Airlines. And I have even more pity for those you consider family, having to endure a person with such hatred.
Here's a little relationship/interpersonal advice from a happily married man... (Not that marriage is a concept you will ever understand or enjoy) When you approach people with the expectation of not liking them (pilots in this case), you will ALWAYS receive a response commensurate to your own behavior, which in turn will only serve to support your misinformed and ignorant belief system. Doesn't matter what you say. You can't hide from nonverbal communication.
So in your world of self proclaimed "pilot hating" you will only always find pilots who fit your stereotype. And ironically they end up loathing you as well. It works the same way with anyone. You create your own pathetic world. Too bad for you.
