Coworker Gloats About His Luxurious Airport Lounge Access, So His Colleagues Humble Him by Sharing the Wrong Gate Number; He Misses the Flight

Even the most experienced traveler gets stressed out about a lot of things at the airport: boarding times, your luggage's weight, TSA scanners, and the classic worry of going to the wrong gate for your flight. These are all things that most people check (and re-check) diligently, that is, of course, unless you're a little too loosey-goosey at the luxury airport lounge. And when you travel for work and are privy to business-class fancies and frequent flier perks, you might forget the most important details of your day in the comfort of a reclining lounge chair.

In this case, a group of coworkers were nearing the end of an insufferable business trip. While one of the guys was a frequent flier, the others were not, so when Mr. Flies-A-Lot started gloating about his airport lounge access, the others in the group got a little salty. They quickly got over the man's overinflated ego and found the perfect way to teach him a lesson. 

Scroll for the full story of how one luxurious flier got knocked down a few pegs when he rubbed his coworkers noses in his fancy-pants airport access, missing their flight because of his arrogance.
