... every once in a while, you get someone who either is just having a bad day or has turned into the "queen bee" that you have to suck up to.
Funny thing was... I was on a revenue ticket, just happened to be in uniform from flying. Still got the attitude...
I got that from US Air the other day riding on a revenue ticket for Netjets... checked in for my flight online, and went to the Dividend Preferred line to check my bag, as I have Silver status with them.
She repeatedly said, "You really shouldn't check your bag, it's a full flight." And, "if you check this bag and you don't get on, I'm not going to be able to get it back off for you." (Well, TSA might have something to say about that one!)
So finally I asked, "Why wouldn't I make it on the flight? I still have a seat assignment, don't I?"
"Well, I show you as revenue standby, and it's checked in full."
"I believe I'm just standing by for First; I should still be confirmed in coach, right?"
A pause.... a look at the screen.... "Aaaaah, yeah. Sorry. :0 "
The uniform just seems to imply "freeloader" to the agents, I guess...
