And the airlines started charging for a checked bag. If I'm going on a 3 day trip, I'm not checking a bag. If any carry on stuff is a pet peeve of mine, it would be people who put two bags in the overhead and nothing under the seat.

I usually punch the # key or just scrape the phone on the keyboard to get to a live attendant sooner. you used to be able to pretend you had a rotary phone, but that schtick doesn't work anymore. Or just keep pressing 0

Got one yesterday.

Went on-line a couple weeks ago to request it. Received notification on Wednesday that it was available. Stopped in on my way from work to the car to pick it up which took about 2 minutes including grabbing the book off the shelf and using the self-checkout.

Great system.

yeah, I mean e-books are great and all, but when you take away the factor of cost and storage, which libraries do, well, I'd rather have a book n my hands.

90% of people who carry on 2 bags put them both in the overhead. Last time I flew, I saw someone carry on 4 bags and put them all in the overhead, of course, I was not allowed to carry on my bag, as I was one of the last ones to board and had to check the 1 bag I had. Since most people are awful, limit them to 1 bag.
