Yes, thank you. I'd like a Velvet and Coke."

Fight attendant hands the passenger the drink.

"That will be $7.00, sir."

Passenger: "Excuse me, but there's no ice in this drink, and it's warm!"

Flight attendant: "But sir, you didn't specify that you wanted it cold, and with ice. I can get you a new one, but it will be $14."

Passenger: "$14??????!!!!??"

Flight attendant: "Well, yes sir. $7.00 for the drink, as I said, plus $3.00 for cold Coke, $2.00 for ice, and a $2.00 disposal fee for dumping out the drink I just poured for you."

Passenger: "Jeebus! Just forget it, okay?

Flight attendant: "Of course, sir. But I still need to collect the $2.00 disposal fee!"

A lesson from my parents: There will always be those who have more than I do. There will always be those who have less than I do. It is not my job to worry about those who have more. It is my job to reach out to those who have less.
