Denver airport


 


Denver Airport :

This is hilarious. I wish I had the guts of this girl. For all of you out there who’ve had to deal with an irate customer, this one is for you. An
award should go to the United Airlines gate agent in Denver for being smart and funny while making her point when confronted with a passenger who probably deserved to fly as cargo.


A crowded United Airlines flight was canceled. A single agent was re-booking a long line of inconvenienced travelers. Suddenly an angry
passenger pushed his way to the desk.

He slapped his ticket on the counter and said “I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be FIRST CLASS.”


The agent replied, “I am sorry, sir. I’ll be happy to try to help you, but, I’ve got to help these folks first, and I’m sure we’ll be able to work
something out.” The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear,

“DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?”


Without hesitating, the agent smiled and grabbed her public address microphone, “May I have your attention please, ” she began, her voice
heard clearly throughout the terminal.

“We have a passenger here at Gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him find his identity, please come to Gate 14.”

 

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the United agent, gritted his teeth and swore “F*** You!”.

Without flinching, she smiled and said, I’m sorry sir, you’ll have to get in line for that too.

    Everyone is so used to last minute cancellation of flights , trains . . . we have no more complaints . All of us have learnt to stand in a que all over again for no fault of ours , and without protesting . When there is someone who protests this is the kind of treatment he gets. And we applaud . Good for us. Let more and more fliWhts be cancelled . let us find fitting girls to deal with irrate cutomers. When Reliance mobile first came to this small town , the office was in a very big hall and the hall used to be filled with customers who had been billed wrongly. I ve also been there. The customer service officers used to wear a Reliance T shirt with “I HAVE GUTS” written across. Someone commented ,” U HAVE TO . . .”. When irresponsibility is the word in this world one has to have guts and Gate agents like this girl. . . .
