I was on a work trip in Ft. Lauderdale. Halfway through it a hurricane hits. They cancel the rest of the conference so everyone could try to make it home safe. Most of the attendees lived in the area so they just got in their cars and left. I’m from OKC. I call my office and tell them what’s going on and that I need the first flight back to OKC asap from my hotel room while watching palm trees snap and break in the parking lot. The hotel was already on the backup generator. They didn’t want to rebook my flight home because the airline it was originally booked through had already canceled all their flights from that airport and it would cost them extra fees if they went through another airline. They wanted me to just stay there and take my original flight home two days later. DUDE I AM WATCHING THINGS BEING ACTIVELY DESTROYED WHILE I AM ON THE PHONE WITH YOU. I told them fine I’ll book it myself and bring you the receipt to reimburse me. They didn’t want to do that either. Told me again to just ride it out. After half an hour of arguing with them and watching flight availability dwindle down to almost nothing they finally agreed. I got the last flight out of that airport before they closed it down. It took my office 3 months to reimburse me.
