    In my defence, it was a mini-Waitrose, back of the petrol station job...

    By the time Christmas does arrive and I am offered a mince pie. I politely decline. So this year I am holding off until mid-november, or next week.

    I’ve just finished night shifts so I can relate to this
    Dunno where the **** I am or what’s going on
    Mind you I don’t own a dressing gown so it’s probably not me

    I was checking in for a flight back to NZ and was being told my baggage was 4 kilos over weight and I needed to pay excess. At the next counter there was a family of 4 checking in, the women must have weighed 130 kilos and the man about the same plus 4 x 23 kilo. I weigh 64 kilos, and they want to charge me 4 kilos over weight, it really pisses me off.

    Makes sense though

    The workers aint lifting them fatties up
    But if they injure themselves carrying a 4kg excess bag, union will have a field day and the airline will not be pleased

    Fair point, but they did say we have a weight limit on the plane for each passenger and that is the reason. But paying for the extra weight makes it okay..

    Bite your tongue about the size of other passengers, open the case and put on all the heaviest clothes and boots, a coat over your arm, your hands full of reading material and off you go. Get to the other side of check in and put it all in a carrier bag.
