Grrr....

I have to say its always fun working in an airport!! I do meet some very interesting people and each day is always so very different from the one before!!

However, its not always the GOOD kind of interesting people I come across.

For example....I had a Captain fly in a few days ago and when he was flying back out, he decided that a simple request from me would send him over the edge of his very high horse!!!

He made such a scene in front of everyone, passengers and employees!! Was actually a fun talking point after he had left but Oh boy this man had such a high opinion of himself!!

The funniest part of all was during a heated conversation (heated on his side, cool as a cucumber on my side!!) he decided he would stomp his feet and wave his arms at his side. Now this type of behaviour I have seen before and it usually comes from a very tiny CHILD!!! Usually around the age of 4,5 and 6!! Ha-Ha

So I decided to tell him as he was screaming at me, that he was acting like a child and that I would prefer he spoke to me in a more professional and adult manner!!

Well needless to say he must have realized I was right and just vanish from my sight!!

As I was saying, every day is different and within these very wide range of days I do meet some very interesting people!!

Usually its some passengers who become too much, but don't worry my fellow traveler friends.....sometimes the staff working for the airline are 100 times worse!!

Airport life!

I really do love my job!!

I know some days I could walk out of work and hate the place and wish I never had t go back (dramatic I know!!) and there are days where I just love my job!

Usually it would take for me to meet someone famous or someone who has been super nice to me!! But today none of that happened.....yes there were a few really nice people but today was just a normal day!

I guess what I love about my job is that it never has one day the same as the one before!! Every single day produces something different!! Its great!

Thank you Lord for guiding me towards getting back into the airport life!!! Its great!

It pays to be nice....

Sometimes it just feels great to help someone who really appreciates your help.

Recently we had a pasenger travel who had their own wheelchair and sadly it wasnt delivered to them on landing at their final destination.

As you can imagine this was the worst thing that could happen to someone who depends on having their wheelchair 24/7.

So I decided I would take personal care in relation to this passenger and the locating of their lost item. I was able to get it tracked and delivered the next day with the help of a few other great people.

To my surprise I recieved a 'Thank You' card from the passenger and traveling companion to say thanks to the help. I also made sure to call the passenger up to let them know every detail as I went along the process. They were so greatful and it felt so good to help someone who really appreciated it!

God loves when we help those in need, no matter where we are...in work, at home, shopping in the mall or where ever! Remember he said in Matthew 25v34-36
'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'

and in verse 40:
'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'

The Lord rewards those who are kind hearted and show good nature to others!

Why not bless someone today and show them that Jesus lives in you!

HEELS!!!

Ladies.....I don't know how some of you do it!! Honestly...I mean some of you walk around all day in these adorable heels and I don't hear one complaint!

Yet I bought a cute pair of heels to wear for work, and I only had them on an hour and my eyes began to water!!! I felt like someone had put a flame to the sole of my foot and was just heating my foot slowly!!!!

OUGH.........I cant believe how sore they can be!! But yet they are so darn cute!!

How do you ladies do it?? I am going to try and wear them a few days around the house and out short distances but really...working in an airport and trying to be cute in heels..........NOT recommended!!

London Training...

Day one on London training course! lol

Its good...the hotel is super nice and I have a nice big bed to myself!!! Very quiet and the weather is very nice at the minute!

The training today was good....was interesting. We looked over the general history of CO airlines. It was cool seeing how it all started and hearing about the highs and lows of the company to date!

Sadly the downside is we will have homework each night....I feel like I have gone back about 10years!! Homework....I thought that word was never used again once you finished school!! lol

Its all good though....so far I'm a happy teddy bear!

Will get pics of the hotel room up possibly tomorrow
