'I plunked down my credit card and bought the last seat': Entitled airline flyer berates customer, not knowing he's actually a pilot

This is your captain speaking… get out of that seat! 

Working as an airline pilot does have that fun perk: the pilot gets to say, "This is your captain speaking," and then they tell you about the weather and how long it'll take to get to your destination. They'll usually mention if there will be turbulence ("We're in for a bumpy ride today, folks!"), and sometimes they get to give the good news that the flight will arrive slightly ahead of time. Plus, pilots don't really have to interact with the public. They just get to chill with their copilot, eat a meal, and apparently they nap a lot while their copilots are keeping things under control. 

One pilot shared that he got to be on the other side of the flying experience at one point in his life. He was heading for a flight as a passenger in order to commute to the airport he had to fly out of for his shift. He managed to get onto the flight with a cushy first-class seat. But unlike his normal days at work, he was subjected to the public, and all of the silliness that can entail.
