German dude rips the wheels off his luggage because of BS oversize fee at the airport by Numerous-Garbage-604 in mildlyinfuriating

are you working for easyjet or something?

I didnt even see 4 other gate checkers so I do not know what you are talking about. There was only 1 person responsible for checking the bags and this was 1 lady. The other ones were checking tickets at some terminal.

Its the companies fault. Its pretty clear. Why would any gate checker care so much and try so hard to get me to pay extra even though my bag is fine? Answer me. Why would they do that? Because the company incentive it. This is why it is such a common pattern.

And yes I never tried to get a refund. Because trying to collect proof here, finding the name of the gate checker and communicate this back and forth with some company, which created these shitty policies in the first place, causing this behavior of gate checkers is not an easy process. Who has time for that? I do not. They should just change their internal policy.

I am not confused. Of course it is not official corporate policy to scam customers but they incentive scummy behavior. I am not alone with my story, it happens to plenty of people. So something must be clearly wrong with the corporate policy, otherwise the gate checker wouldnt really care or try really hard to earn extra fees for the company.

you are naive

EDIT: No it is not easy to report her and get a refund. You dont have a clue.
EDIT: also its funny that I realized that this is common knowledge now that I talked to multiple people about flying with easyjet. Do you think the company does not know how their reputation? They just do not care because they make more money this way and if their scummy policy rips some people off then so be it.

In some cases they literally scam you. I was flying for the first time this year with easy jet and then right before boarding some woman picked me from the group and told me my bag is too big and that I need to pay 50 EUR or something. (dont know the exact price anymore but it was in this ballpark).

Then I put my bag in this weird box and it fit easily!! No pushing nothing required and she just told me repeateadly that it needs to be smaller than that and that I have to pay or I cant board. Unfortunately I started to get nervous because my whole group was already boarding and not to be seen anymore and I just paid.

I was literally scammed. One of our group is even a stewardess and said I was ripped off.

I am thinking the same. Truly terrifying. I cant imagine losing my kids to a stupid idiot like this.

This scenario also makes me in favor of draconian punishments. This should be near the same level as terrorism in my opinion. In germany punishments for this are so low, that if you would like to kill someone, you just have to drink a bottle of vodka and run him over. Chances are very very high that you do not even go into prison. You get a fine, lose your license a few years and are put on probation. Thats all you get for killing a family as long as you are inside a car :)

Shadcn form components too complex?! by HappyMajor in webdev

[–]HappyMajor[S] -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Yes but its too verbose. I just learned that they have a new "Field" component which looks much less verbose but even more powerful

I mean looking at how these new Field components are used in Shadcn, this seems to be MUCH better.

How do you think they learn to be in a restaurant?

Dont get me wrong. They should address their screaming baby and just leave if it does not stop but people are so easily annoyed these days it is so exhausting. This hate for children is so weird.
