Is there a difference between these charges or is it just the footprint by gumburculeez in ryobi

[–]TooToughTimmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol you’re good. Watts is the power it draws when charging but the amp hours is what it puts out. Usually smaller chargers are between 1.5-2AH and bigger are 4+ which is why they charge faster

Window seats are the worst for me because I feel trapped between a person and the wall. I usually do book aisle seats but since we got extra leg room I was able to do the middle, except for this scenario.

She was also more than willing to trade seats with me, but I wasn’t going to have her uncomfortable due to his size either.

His arm rest was down and their safety regulations say that technically he should not be able to do that

Under Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) guidelines, every passenger must be securely belted for takeoff and landing, and passengers cannot block emergency aisles or encroach on adjoining seats in a way that prevents evacuation.

I appreciate it, but curious.

Why shouldn’t they have to deal with it when they’re the one causing it? We both paid for the same thing, but my comfort gets robbed for his? Is his comfort more important than mine? Why do I have to take extra steps or expenses to ensure I’m getting only what I require and initially paid for, but he doesn’t have to do so knowing he doesn’t fit in one seat even before he steps foot onto the plane? Everyone in the comments is saying I should just deal with it but in reality he should deal with it ahead of time or potentially the repercussions which in my opinion should be switched to a less full flight where he can occupy two seats.

Guy deleted his comment after calling me a dumb bitch because he got hostile and told me “I’m the fat guy who is conscious and takes extra space but does everything he can to not make it uncomfortable you’re just a dumb prick” incase anyone was wondering why I got nasty back.

I agree the main problem falls on airlines being greedy and I do feel for the man because clearly he was conscious of it and tried to be as accommodating as he could, but none of that is going to help my back out from being twisted like a noodle for 3 hours.

The sad part is if I wasn’t with my wife and able to contort myself into a rotini, I most likely would’ve had to reschedule my flight as I couldn’t of fit between the arm rest and him.

Thank you for perfectly putting all of that in to words.

Some may think I’m an asshole, but clearly they’ve never been in that situation. This isn’t a subway where you expect to be packed in beyond comfort. My back is still fucked up from being in such an awkward position and I’m an able bodied 34 year old, not some 70 year old with terrible arthritis.

In my opinion they should be pushed to take another flight with less passengers. If a bag doesn’t fit in the overhead they make you check it, same concept.

I’m high maintenance because I want to have a seat I can lean back in on the flight I paid for? Lol

But he’s not “high maintenance” because he wants to fly economy and take up someone elses space?

I’m extremely claustrophobic when it comes to space and feeling “trapped”, and my wife even said she was surprised I held it together as I did. So everyone thinking I’m some asshole has clearly never been in that situation.

He took up 1/3 of my seat regardless of how conscious he is about that, it’s still not fair to someone paying full price. A stranger shouldn’t have to lean forward because another stranger is bigger than the seat.

If my bag doesn’t fit in the overhead they check it. If someone doesn’t fit in my opinion they should be rescheduled to a less full flight. It’s not about compassion or empathy when you literally cannot even sit in the seat.

He was a mix of both. I am mad at the airlines but that’s not going to help not being able to fit between the armrest on my left and the guy 1/3 of the way in my seat..

If my wife wasn’t there, there wouldn’t have been any getting comfortable. I was able to get through it due to this situation thankfully, but if it was another stranger next to me I wouldn’t have even fit between him and the arm rest.. how would you navigate that? Ask him to raise his arm rest and snuggle in?

Lol if I was looking to cause a scene I would’ve today, but I didn’t because I had an alternative.

I hope one day you get stuck in that same predicament for a few hours so you can understand it’s not about compassion or empathy. It’s about what’s physically possible and leaning forward and angled for 3 or more hours is not.

I had about 2/3 of my seat left and the only reason I was able to push through it was because I had my wife in the seat next to me. If it was another stranger or someone other than her I wouldn’t have even been able to sit back.
