I flew into Melbourne, FL last week. they have a super townie airport and only one snack bar/bar place that only operates at certain times depending on when a flight is scheduled. I got there really early because I had nowhere to be/go before my flight and the bar lady gave me three beers because she was leaving for like an hour.

Sounds identical to the Saginaw Michigan airport. 4 gates. I flew to Detroit from there, 14 minutes in the air.

Only 14 minutes in the air? uggh, jeals! It took me 4 days to hitchhike from Saginaw...

I would not ride that plane. If they don't care enough about that plane to update the paint scheme, they probably don't care enough to keep up the maintenance.

The new carpet is basically identical.

Good story though

good for delta

slightly OT, but I enjoy Starbucks coffee more than coffee from anywhere else. I can't think of any product so mass produced and uniform that I enjoy as much as Starbucks Coffee.

yeah, it's great

Speaking of coffee, I brought a can of cafe du monde stuff from New Orleans today for my coworker to try. He has his own coffee pot at work and every once and awhile i'll give him a $1 for a cup. Anyways, he was very thankful and he sat it next to the coffee maker and made some for us this morning. Everything is cool, right? Well this afternoon, I made a small pot for myself because i'm going to workout after work. I go back for a second cup and guess what? HE DUMPED IT OUT! Reasoning? You never asked me if you could use my coffee maker. I mean, what in the world?!

pissclams · « **Reply #5891 on:** February 04, 2015, 05:33:13 PM »

lesson learned, don't eff with a man's Du Monde. this isn't chock full o nuts that we're talking about.

Why did you just assume you could use his pot

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #5893 on:** February 04, 2015, 06:01:18 PM »

Because I brought him my coffee to share it with him since he'd never had it before.

michigancat · « **Reply #5894 on:** February 04, 2015, 06:03:29 PM »

he charges a dollar a cup?

star seed 7 · « **Reply #5896 on:** February 04, 2015, 06:05:11 PM »

Did you use the coffee you gave him as a present?

Also, is coffee before a workout a thing? Seems like it wouldn't be good, but I don't really drink coffee much (or workout lol)

He's our accountant and the dick head of the office. Tries to intimidate ppl so they won't talk to him. Some days I'm desperate and I'm like "eff it, here's a $1, can I have a cup plz?"
