The next decade....what's in store?

Encounter with the station manager:1

I cut it close for my flight out of Jamaica Tuesday. Got to the airport 1hr and 5 mins before departure. Had upgraded to first class so I could get heavier weight allowance. Took many requests for Things Jamaican so luggage was full, also remember that I decided to buy house stuff in Jamaica where it is cheaper, so that took up lots of space.

I know the Station Manager at the airport. Like a good employee, that didn't prevent me from being asked to re-arrange my luggage!

I had as carry on, my laptop (damn bag is very heavy), a knapsack, and a small suitcase. After all, I travelled from Grenada with all of that, so why shouldn't it be a problem here? It was. Mr station manager said the stations are getting written up by the flight attendants for allowing excess baggage in the cabin. He very kindly took me behind the counter so my draws (panties!) would not be in full view of other passengers.

He also assisted me in repacking (not the draws!). I thought he was quite good in the way he was forceful without being forceful, while I was protesting. It'a all about following procedure. When I told him I had come up with all that, he said I shouldn't have been allowed with it, plus, first class was full yesterday so he knew there wouldn't be any spare room. Right he was. My laptop had to go where the flight attendants have there stuff, and my small suitcase travelled in Economy class!
