Idiot of the Day IV

So when I was traveling back to DC from Miami a couple weeks' back, we arrived at Miami International Airport, also known as useless place to travel from. The airport is obviously much easier to travel from than say, Fort Lauderdale, but that is not saying much. Today's Idiot of the Day lesson is directed at not one, but actually all of these morons in the check-in line.

You see, when we showed up, there were 5 working kiosks, no one at them, and no United employees working behind the counter. So we stood at the back of the line for about two minutes and then realized, unlike the other 30 people in line, that reps from United weren't coming to the counter. Not that hour. Not that day. Probably not ever.

So instead of just waiting for the slow moment of death to arrive, I said fuck all and told the wife to walk around the group and just walk up to the kiosk and get our boarding passes. Everyone stared in awe as she did just that. And after two minutes she came back, we picked up our bags and walked away. In true classy idiot style, everyone didn't move and take our lead. They just kept on standing still. I'm glad none of those idiots was my pilot.
