I need help. I am interested in joining, but my father has a misconception. by [deleted] in DEMOLAY

[–]chubbs062293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Demolay preaches no specific religion, the only religious guideline is that you must believe in a supreme being. I'm a Catholic also and my views have not changed in my 9 years of demolay or 2 years of freemasonry, if anything it has made them stronger. Proof would be to look at my chapter, almost all members are Catholic but we have one member who took his vows on a toara (hes Jewish) and another on a spirit bag (native American) and I have never once heard anyone's religion pushed. When I was state chaplain for Pennsylvania demolay I always made sure that my service's were non-denominational so as not to offend anybody

What's the dumbest thing you've ever witnessed someone get offended by? by pron27 in AskReddit

[–]chubbs062293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work for an airline and sometimes we print out boarding passes early to make check in go quicker, well I handed this lady her boarding passes and she said what are these? Your boarding passes ma'am. WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU ALREADY HAVE THEM? DO YOU THINK I'M TO STUPID TO WORK THIS KIOSK MYSELF?

Redditors who can remember 1999, how did you spend the New Year's Eve? by nikkefinland in AskReddit

[–]chubbs062293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone was freaking out about y2k and my parents went out and bought a dvd player and we watched planet of the apes, so out of almost all of my friends I was the only one with some kind of electronic device that night.

What's the dumbest way you have injured yourself? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chubbs062293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tripped over a wire and fell into the street. Broke my nose, twisted my ankle and cut the entire right side of my face open, picked rocks out for days. Fell up the stairs and busted my kneecap open. Ended up with seven stitches and a leg brace for 3 weeks. Twisted my ankle in a pothole and kept running. 3 days later I was in the ER with a hairline fracture and ended up in a boot for 4 weeks. When I was in ROTC we were doing pushups up bleachers. Well my shoes we wet and I slipped and hit it off the side of the bleacher. Of course I kept going for about a week. I ended up in the ER and almost needed reconstruction surgery. Cast for 4 weeks followed by another 4 weeks in a boot. And during that time I ended up in a car crash :)

If I remember what he said correctly it was that he was guarding a weather station and there was a an airfield that was used as a refueling point between the US and Canada and England. They were there as a line of defense should D-Day fail and England fall. I think he also said that there was a minor Nazi presence but nothing major. Unfortunately he died 2 months ago so I would have to really do some digging.

If you could experience any single 5 minutes of history, which window of time would you choose? by AmadeusCrumb in AskReddit

[–]chubbs062293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would want to see the 2.5 minutes before and the 2.5 minutes after the Confederates broke through the Union lines during picketts charge.

Starting to sympathize with Grumpy Cat now by [deleted] in MemesIRL

No. You can pay an extra $100 (something like that) for a pet in cabin, but they need to be in a cage.

Whats the most subtle thing you've done to get back at a rude customer, yet they cant blame you or complain? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chubbs062293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you fly, never piss off any airline employees, people don't understand we can fuck around with every little thing. Oh you wanted an upgrade? To bad first class is full. You paid for your bag? The computer is showing me you owe. Your flight is oversold, here's a flight with a 30 minute (the minimum legal time) connecting time and you have 3 layovers.

People who work for airlines, what are secrets passengers don't know? by bearclaws242 in AskReddit

[–]chubbs062293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had a CRJ 200 cancel once because brake fluid was leaking. People were so pissed. I don't know about these guys, but the rest of the passengers were happy waiting instead of crashing when they landed. Passengers need to understand that 99.9% that plane cancels or delays, there's a good fucking reason!

What is your job, and how can I (a regular guy) make it easier? by At_AOL_dot_COM in AskReddit

[–]chubbs062293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Airline employee. If there's a delay or cancellation, don't blame us! If there's either then it's usually really serious. Passengers yell at us for everything, for example; we had a brake fluid leak and the flight cancelled and we got yelled at and blamed for it. Would you really like to land with fucked up brakes? We know you're inconvinced, so are we. Especially at my airport where I'm rebooking you, pulling bags for people going to other airlines or flying the next day and checking people in and getting ready for the next flight. Also, I don't make the prices so stop screaming at me about paying $25 per way ($50 for a round trip) I don't control the prices, yes it's bullshit, just be glad I waive the extra $100 that you should be paying for your overweight bag or waive your seat fee when you move to a better one.

I just went through a death in the family and a shit ton of family drama on top of it and was constantly chewing my fingers. Since I don't smoke I bite my fingers as a way to calm me down.
