Now Boarding…
Posted by Brad Osborne on February 5, 2020 · 4 Comments
With a quick glance I see
The “E” on your boarding pass
They just called for section “B”
Why must you be such an ass
The seat you get won’t be mine
Or anyone else’s so
Why must you jump in line
And make the process slow
There is a reason and method
A purpose to the parade
Courtesy not in your head
For seat assignments made
None of us are able to go
Until all of us can board
Why must you cause a roe
You bane to travelling horde
Of arrival you are assured
You will get there just as fast
As for getting us all onboard
Karma says you should be last

You’ve hit on one of the mysteries of life, Brad. My only guess is they want to make sure they can get their bag in an overhead storage bin before they’re all taken. Don’t they feel the least bit guilty when the elderly man/woman, struggling with a bag, can’t find space?
I’m with you and Pete on this one. I just don’t get it. Although I must admit I always hope I don’t get the letter E!
So spot on!!!
