F*CK the FAA!

Fun fact time! Did you know the FAA allows airlines to legally sell up to 8 seats per flight twice? That's right, instead of charging each passenger 2 more dollars per seat to guarantee your place, the government allows them to sell your seat to somone else. And not just the day of, at any time. Next time you buy a plane ticket, think about that. "Is this seat going to be open for me?" or "Am I purchasing someone else's seat?" Imagine if all business was run this way. Your dinner reservation was changed so that 1 of your friends had to wait 'til tommorrow to be served. Or even better, you rent a movie and when you get home you get a screen that says "Oh I'm sorrrrrry, someone else also rented this movie. You can wait and we will try and find you another movie. Or if you want you can have a voucher for a future movie rental which may or may not also be rented." Don't forget to buy insurance on that voucher or it can be discontinued at anytime. Plus let's fuck our employees in the ass by giving them as few tools as possible to conduct their business. That way they won't be able to look up information required to find other flights at the same time. I love holiday travel.
