What's the big deal with the crew meals anyway? Just pick up a couple and throw them in your bag for later, when you duty in. As for the sustinance of the old ones, when they were in the airplane most of the stuff on the inside was missing anyway- idiots would pillage all the good stuff out of the bottom of the box.

As for customers deserving more- they ought to be paying more, frankly. I do what I can, but at a certain point, it's time to eat real food. However, with ACARS, it's much easier to do without running late. Even the cooperative "Meal Run" works every once in a while. I can't tell you how often I've made a food run for the Captain and F/A.

As for the shuttle- By the time you've called, the driver finally wakes up from nappy time, and gets the thing moving to your present location at a snails pace, you could have walked to your aircraft- twice. That thing was more of a pain in the tail than it was worth. If your walk isn't going to get you there in time, the shuttle probably wasn't going to either.

That being said- I'd love to have the opportunity to drive the crew shuttle while on ready reserve. When it comes to the accellerator- NEVER LIFT! That thing would go through tires faster than a NASCAR. Don't believe an Atlanta ramper can hussle- I bet they can: )
