Practical Etiquette [Thursday, August 8, 2013, 2nd period]
"Good morning, everyone," Josh said as the class filled the Danger Shop, this time programmed to look like a busy airport terminal.
You lucky, lucky things.
"Today you're going to experience the joys of modern travel," Josh said, "which should probably be used as a final exam but I don't really care that much. This is, of course, a simulation so you're not really going anywhere today, unless it's to airline security because there's nowhere on the planet that people are stupider than in an airport. True story."
"Don't kill anyone today," he concluded, sitting down in a rickety iron chair at a fast-food joint and sipping from his coffee cup. "Bye."

Have a good trip!
Alec Lightwood: The person in front of you trying to check in has never, apparently, used a computer in their lives. They've been staring at the screen for fifteen minutes and the lone airline attendant hasn't noticed because she's texting on her phone.
Alex Aaron: The person in front of you at the security line walked through the metal detector with a pocketful of change.
Alexandra Jones: You're in the waiting area for your flight and a three year old boy has kicked your carry-on bag ten times with no correction from his mother.
Bay Kennish: There's a person standing on the walk side of the people mover and his luggage is blocking your way around him. He's talking on his phone too loudly for him to hear you asking him to move.
Emily Thorne: You've just sat down in your economy seat and the person in front of you has already pushed theirs all the way back.
Jim Kirk: The guy next to you in your economy seat has put his leg under your leg space and is hogging both arm rests.
Marasiah Fel: The woman behind you in line has smacked you with her rolly bag six times and has only been there five minutes.
Mercy Thompson: The baby behind you in the security line won't. stop. shrieking.
Mordin Solus: Your flight has been cancelled. The airline employees are making no effort at all to get you onto a new one.
Surreal SaDiablo: The flight attendant has walked past you ten times now without getting you a drink that everyone else has.
William Murdoch: The plane has run out of food just as they get to you and haven't apologized.

Oh yes, she was going to press and hold the 'call attendant' button for both her seat and her neighbor's seat - just in case it was broken - and hold it down until someone came over and took her order. And if the drink still failed to materialize, she was going to keep doing it until she got her beverage.

This was going to be great.

He called the flight attendant and ordered a drink. He thanked the attendant, took a sip and then spilled it on the dude's leg. The dude moved his leg pretty quick and while Jim did apologize, he smirked as soon as the guy got up to go wash up.
And then he stretched out and put his arm on his arm rest. Done!
