Ok, I don't rant often but here it is..
Just got home from BNE-MEL on QF639. sitting in 6C
Plane land and before the pilots have even had a chance to idle the engines after applying the reverse thrust, people are already turning their phones on... Seriously people, do you really think turning your phone on so soon will make people ring sooner? are you that important????
Then..
We taxiing back to the gate, and the plane turns in and is moving s-l-o-w-l-y anyway Mr Clown in 5D decides it's ok to get up and start unloading his bag from the overhead bin. Then Ms Clown in 5C does the same thing. This is while the plane is still moving.
I was in one of those moods tonight and I piped up, "Are you right people? The seatbelt sign is still on"
Mr. Clown looks over to me and says, "it's ok" and laughs. I was just about to say something to him when the FA got on the PA and said "The seatbelt light is still illuminated, please sit down!" The look on his face was priceless! I just shook my head at him.
Why do some people think the rules don't apply to them? It really gets up my goat!
So Mr. Clown in 5D, i hope if one day you read this, you aren't above the rules!
ok end rant..
