Feel airports should top this list. Just getting through security has 4 different priority options. (TSA precheck here)

Then there are the airline clubs (United member here)

Then boarding priorities have gotten way out of control. (Boarding group 1 here, but there’s at least 3 priorities in front of that now.

Forget all that tho. Airports have to be the #1 place for the blue jean, sport coat wearing asshat on his earpiece walking around talking like he’s the Wolf of f’ing Wallstreet. I swear that guy wants to make damn sure everyone knows he’s in the midst of saving the world.

Anyone got somewhere that tops the airport as the top place people try and flex their status?

Anyone who doesn’t wear team colors, a pfg, or an under armor polo is probably queer

Haven’t seen an ear piece in at least 5 years and they were rare then. Took about 30 flights last year.

Another fail baby tac thread, but you’ll still get bites from other retards. 3.4/10

Can we get a feature so you can post in a thread without it bumping?

Because BabyTac’s threads are consistently atrocious and should be automatically anchored.

It is always the same “look at me I go to airports and travel for business so I am rich, aren’t I so cool” schtick.

His “tinney shoes” thread was equally atrocious. He belongs on a wall of shame.

I got on my first international business flight via points and expected people around me to all look like fancy pants fellas but in reality they all look like normal folks and was a revelation that people just have a lot of money

Very few people who get those airline perks are are doing so solely to "flex" on the general public.

It's rich people who don't care about the money and just like the perks.

Or regular business travelers who get to expense it to their companies.

That’s where I’m at. Even though I could afford it, as a senior executive I get the perks. I live a humble life tho so would never come out of my pocket.

…and I don’t have an ear piece or ear buds. Whatever the kids are calling it these days.

Complains about airport flex, then proceeds to airport flex 3 times.

Is your self awareness gene missing?

Dude, look in the mirror. You’re constantly trying to flex your status on here.

Hey dickhead, I'm just trying to get some work done while having to get on a plane and fly around and eat up my work day.

Flexing? We are just trying to make the miserable experience that is flying as least shitty as possible. The more you do it, the more important it becomes to skip lines and be able to get stuff done.

Anyone can claim to be anything behind a keyboard. Generally, if I travel work, I typically drive, since most of our plants/offices/customers are within driving distance. OT is the hotbed for honesty.

Ah yes, a Baw's church attire. Pairs well with nice jeans.

People really flexing - you won’t see them there because they’re flying private.

You guys remember when Baby Tac talked shite about co-authoring a 3 sentence long memo for his employees? It took he and 2 other "execs" and they still didn't even type it up correctly.


Good times.
