A few thoughts on traveling.
There’s a difference between a polite but firm request and a shrill demand. Where’s the line? Here are six things one should never do when you travel: I found these suggestions on the World Wide Web.
1. Threaten violence
Bad idea, and it usually has the opposite effect than the one you intended.
2. Yell
Raising your voice is almost never an effective way of getting what you want.
3. Have one too many
Alcohol and travel don’t mix. That’s definitely true if you’re driving, and almost always true when you’re flying.
4. Be inconsiderate of others
Selfish behavior gets you nowhere when you travel.
5. Leave your manners at home
Somehow, travelers think the rules don’t apply when they’re away. You see that a lot with elite-level frequent fliers who believe they not only deserve the red carpet, but also have a license to misbehave.
6. Act like a jerk
You’ve met them elsewhere, but being trapped on a plane, train or bus with them can be intolerable, because you can’t just walk away. You’re stuck with a jerk and all the jerky behavior that goes with it.
Happy Trails!
