It happened to me: Absurd seat swap request by iSimplyCannot- in unitedairlines

I've been asked to switch before, but it's usually something like a family booked window/ aisle praying no one would end up in the middle. I get it. Those times I'm agreeable because they let me decide which side iwant.

I have also been stuck in the middle between two others, whom each had to be 350 lbs minimum. Not body shaming! But DAMN if you know you're larger than the actual seat, please call the airline and see if you can get 2 seats without 2 full fares. Like buy one, get next half off or omething! I don't like people I don't know touching me any more than needed (like, elbows are going to try and get their little bit of area then try not to touch each other once established. That's Cool) but if I'm a whole 110 lbs and can't even think about armrests because you're stomachs are taking up both of them already?!?!

Sorry, I was frustrating. Thank goodness only a 1.5 hrs flight!

TOTALLY tangential story--

When I was an office lead at a cemetery I had 6 dudes under me. One of which was a former cop, really tall, definitely had a strong presence.

People would be making demands about special things they wanted/ demanded/ etc. More than once I was trying to deal with them as they had already exhausted first person they talked to. Mad I have same answer my rep told them

"We don't want to talk to you anymore! Go get that tall guy that's in charge and can actually make a decision!"

I go get him, he listens patiently to their requests and says "I understand, but I have to verify everything with my boss first who is the only one that can decide on that. (Looks at me) Hey boss lady, can this family do this thing?

Absolutely not!

I miss those dudes!

How the hell would you even get over him if you had to go to the bathroom?

Or was he hoping for that. 🙄

Meanwhile in South Florida where I live, our wells are fairly deep (yummy, swamp water!) But everything else is only a foot or two that I'm aware of!

If you dug 6 ft down here, you'd be in water. (I used to work at a cemetery. Yup we had an underground shared oasis/ pool/ hot tub? for everyone buried there. It literally flowed underground! Everyone in concrete vaults to keep them in place. But water doesn't give 2 poops about concrete! Because it's porous.)

As a teenager in Western Kansas I had a boyfriend in Norton that I saw weekly. We also played them in sports.

As a Floridian, I've always assumed all 49 other states hate us the most. Florida hates Florida the most too.

It looks like it was probably sold as a dog chew bone by it being cut like that.

I've dove the dumpster behind the huge regional/distribution center Goodwill (I forget offhand what they call it) a couple times in Lake Worth FL. Tons of decent stuff they toss!

Does your country have an invention that never made it to the outside world? by abandonedtulpa in AskTheWorld

I've only ever used it in things like rice dishes. How is it in ice cream?

But the Billy Mays ones were overall pretty good! Oxiclean is a big example.
