Airport Boycott...

.... Well, that is until it's my turn again. Yes, today, after picking up not one, but two people at the airport at different times, and having a total of 3 airport trips in 4 days, I have decided that I will not be returning until I am the one getting on an airplane. Don't get me wrong, I have no qualms about helping people out when it comes to drop offs/pick-ups. But the 2nd trip ended up being by far one of my worst experiences at an airport and it was 11:45 PM!!!!! Yes, there were 2 long lines to even pick someone up and then after I pulled to the side to pick up the person, who was not out front just yet, and waited. I was at the end of the arrival area and there was still tones of room around me. Then, this bitchy airport traffic women comes up and yells at me that I can't stay there, even for another minute. I said ok. I was in the middle of calling the person who I was picking up to see if they were out yet and get ready to pull away. Then she moves in front of my car, because get this, I was not pulling out fast enough. Heavens forbid there were cars passing me at a constant rate so I could not pull out, and she was in front of me. So yeah, there was no way I could get out. Then she starts writing me a ticket because I'm 'not going'. So being in a piss ass mood, I yell at her, through my rolled up window, "I'm going!" And yes, she heard me. She yells back how there's a no cell phone policy, which didn't make any sense since everyone in their cars and on the side walk were talking on their phones. Anyways, thank god for a clearing and I was able to pull away. She stopped writing the ticket.... cross your fingers she didn't finish it after I left.

After my bicker with the rude airport traffic bitch, and yeah, I was being a bitch too, I had to circle another 3 times before the person I was picking up got outside. Yeah, it was that busy at almost midnight on a Wednesday. Who knew. At least you and I both now know that that is a terrible time to be at the PDX airport. Boo!

Anyways, I needed to vent. I'm tired of people being dumb and rude. I'm tired of them pissing me off so much. Errrr. I need to chill the fuck out right now. Seriously, no more! And I definitely won't be making any more trips to the airport. Well, unless I get a decent size check soon.... then I'm out of here for who knows how long!

Oh, and deepest apologizes for my rants lately. I promise I will write nicer things in the coming days. And maybe even post some stellar photographs of new design work. Yeah, I know, I bet you're excited for that.
