THIS IS A
KEEPER!!!!
It happened at a
New York Airport.
This is hilarious. I wish I had the guts of this
girl.
An award should go to the United
Airlines gate agent in
New York for being smart and funny,
while making her point, when
confronted with a passenger who probably
deserved to fly as cargo.
For all of you out there who have had to
deal with an irate
customer, this one is for you.
A crowded United
Airlines flight was canceled.
A single agent was re-booking a long
line of inconvenienced travelers.
Suddenly, an angry
passenger pushed his way to the desk.
He slapped his ticket on the
counter and said,
"I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be
FIRST CLASS."
The agent replied,
"I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you,
but I've got
to help these folks first;
and then I'm sure we'll be able to work
something out."
The passenger was
unimpressed.
He asked loudly, so that
the passengers behind him
could hear,
"DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?"
Without
hesitating, the agent smiled and
grabbed her public address
microphone.
"May I have your attention, please?",
she
began, her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal.
"We have
a passenger here at Gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS.
If anyone
can help him with his identity, please come to Gate 14".
With the folks
behind him in line laughing hysterically,
the man glared at the
United Airlines agent,
gritted his teeth, and said, "F*** You!"
Without flinching,
she smiled and said, "I'm sorry sir,
you'll have to get in
line for that, too."
Life isn't about
how to survive the storm, but how to
dance in the rain.
I'm sorry, that was just too funny! I can totally relate to that woman's reaction though. I've worked in marketing and there were customers who thought that they would get more assistance being angry. Mama always told me (now I'm telling my own kids) you got to be kind to others. It will only be met with kindness. smh.
