    Font - The_Essex A plane I was on almost got entirely de-planed because a woman at the front took her dog out of its crate and refused to put it back in. Not to mention we were already 45 minutes delayed because the crew was late.

    Font - PM_ME_COLOR_STORIES A couple of years ago I had a study group going for a college course. We were usually together for a good 3 or 4 hours, so it was pretty common for someone to volunteer to go get food for everyone, and since they were the person getting us food, we would all kick in a little extra so that the person getting the food didn't have to pay for theirs. Colloquially, "If you fly, I'll buy."

    Font - So one day one of the girls in the group announces she's going to Dunkin' Donuts about an hour into the study session. I look up and say, "Ooh, I'll buy if you fly," and she looks at me like I've grown an extra appendage and scoffs, in this really disgusted tone, "I don't bring food to other people. Servants do that." Keep in mind, we'd all been doing this for each other for weeks now. She knew it was a thing. I was completely floored.

    Font - Confused Contortion. Definitely not the absolute worst, but I was on a plane for a few hours today, and someone thought it was a good idea to play their music out loud for the whole plane because they couldn't be bothered to use headphones.

    Font - TheKarenator Sat behind a 13 yo kid playing a video game on his phone with loud volume. The kind with sound effects that aren't relevant to gameplay with no dialogue. Seemed like he was alone so I held my tongue. Eventually someone asked if he could turn it down. And his mom was apparently across the aisle the whole time right next to him, "oh he has earphones he just doesn't like them." Flight attendant came over and said he needed to turn it off or put them on. I don't blame that kid at

    Font - Isolated Thinker89 There was this girl that started working at the store I worked at and one night we were scheduled to work together in the same area. People who work an area together usually talk while performing the menial tasks so I figured I would get to know her. She explained she was a former model and she seemed super prissy. Not to insult her character but it explains why she said what she did.

    Font - Imagine a typical conversation where you're trading stories and comparing but every time I would talk she would say, verbatim, "Yeahhhhh, but I don't really care about that" and "I don't really want to hear about that" with no proposed alternatives to conversation or anything. It screamed, "I'll talk, you'll listen, and nothing else"

    Font - suchascenicworld Back in the day when I first began to do fieldwork I met someone who just got his PhD (and truly felt like he was the s. While we were out there, an old friend who he hasn't seen in years came up to him and greeted him using his first name. He actually stopped the person in the middle of their sentence and said "excuse me, my name is Dr...___) and he was absolutely serious.
  • 14
    Font - This was about ten years ago and I now have a PhD but I wouldn't imagine doing that to anyone. Really, the only people that refer to me as Dr are my students (if they don't use professor) or if I am at a conference or something and that is absolutely fine by me.

    Font - TRNLJ6 My husband and I host high school age exchange students (In Canada), they come from a bunch of different places in the world. Had this one boy from Southern Italy.......about 2 weeks in, we had this coversation: Him: My sheets haven't been washed yet. Me: Have you washed them? Him: No Me: Well that's probably why they haven't been washed. Him: The housekeeper does that.

    Font - The weird thing is that he did his clothes laundry - his hang up with the sheets was he didn't know how to put it back together. Needless to say, he learned how to do laundry properly (1 load does not equal 4 socks..... that's a waste of water), make a bed, and left to go home with some basic cooking skills and a couple recipes in his pocket (we taught him to boil water for pasta and he learned the hard way that the tomato sauce gets put in AFTER the water gets drained from the pot).

    Font - Kid was definitely a brat but his willingness to learn these things made us have the patience to teach him. This year he left home to go to University and sounds like some of these skills are working out for him :)

There was an another girl from our class who we were polite and friendly to but not really friends with. Let's call her Courtney. She was pretty and expected people to do the work for her and coasted through most the year because this course had a lot of group assignments. It had become clear to almost everyon

    Font - conversations where people used to talk about anything relating to money or wealth. It was weird, her eyes would practically light up when she heard someone uses an expensive beauty brand, visits an expensive bar or if someone had a relatively famous last name or lineage. Incident: Anyway, my best friend and I didn't have much in common with her but she insisted on joining us for coffee. We gave in and said okay and gave her the directions to meet us.

    Font - Fast forward to us sitting in the cafe, she enters one hour later, spots us and without even making eye contact or greeting the waiter drops her wet half open umbrella on to/ near his hands. We immediately directed her attention to what she had just done and the poor waiter who was stunned, not knowing what to do. She shrugged and said, "It's fine." My friend and I were horrified, we emphatically said, "No, it's not!" before we profusely apologised to the waiter, didn't stay much longer a

They proceed to pile up the luggage at the door to prevent people getting on or off, presumably because they knew that the car would eventually be packed at that hour. People getting off had to cross into the adjacent car.

    Font - buffetserver I work at a high end buffet here in Vegas. You get sat, are told to wait, I come up and greet you, explain our offerings, go over the drink menu, take a drink order and then inform you to help yourself while I get the drinks. As I step away one time I heard a kid about 8 or so say, "So I have to get my own food?" Mom said yes. Kid said, "I told you we should have brought Michael with us." Mom said, "NO, I told you before, we're not bringing our butler on vacation."

He looked at me angrily as I remade his order and said "Should have stayed in school!" I almost started crying but managed to keep my composure.

He had something in his hands that the mom was buying and the cashier offered to ring it and give it back to him. The kid said, "you better or I'll have your job." The mo said, "don't be like that (Johnny), she probably needs her job."

    Font - SayNoToHypocrisy I've been sitting on this story for a while. I'll share it here, I guess. So, I am on a "completely full" Southwest flight. Luckily, I am in the A boarding group and got a seat near the front of the plane. I am chilling, low- key watching people board. Time passes and the plane is getting pretty full and, at this point, there's virtually no overhead-compartment space left.

    Font - This young woman walks on, spots an empty seat in the row ahead of mine, and asks the people in the row to move so she can get in. Completely normal, right?. The issue: she has a very large carry-on bag that she cannot fit under the seat in front of her. And, as I said, there's no overhead compartment space left. She proceeds to remove a bag from the overhead-compartment that belonged to a man who was one of the first on the plane, places it in the middle of the aisle, puts her bag it its

    Font - This drew some major attention from those sitting around her, including the man who owned the bag and the remaining passengers behind her in line who now have to navigate their way around a bag in the middle of the aisle. Several people are about to let her have it when, luckily, a flight attendant who witnessed all of this arrives. She gives her a short lecture and then proceeds to play a game of Tetris with the bags overhead and, thankfully, is able to squeeze her's and the man's bag in

My sister locked her eyes on a pair of converse boots almost instantly, and my dad suggested at least looking around some more if she found something even nicer. To that my sister just said in a very matter of fact way: "Remember, you're just the wallet." Nowadays if someone from the family takes someone else shoppin
