Ever done anything crazy?

Bigsweetie · 11-12-2005, 12:08 PM

Pilot Princess' post about the holidays got me thinking back to when DH and I were still dating and he was hauling freight. I had recently been layed off and had pretty much moved in with Eric since I didn't have much to do (I was looking for work near where he lived anyway). Well at that job he would get paged for a trip and he'd be gone 1-2 days depending on if they had another "paid" trip back. They usually wouldn't let them sit anywhere for more than a couple of days. Well one day they paged him (in the middle of "you know what"

) and he left for Georgia. Well they let him sit down there DOING NOTHING for FIVE DAYS!! I was soooo pissed. Give up already and bring them home.

Here's where it got a little "crazy".

I actually went down to where he worked. Got through the "locked" gate and went into dispatch and said in a VERY snotty tone "When are you planning to bring Eric and so-and-so home?"

Well, shortly after I left Eric called to say they told him to come on back to PTK. LOL!!!!

Do you guys have any "crazy" things you've done for your pilot? Or just weak moments where you kinda wish you maybe hadn't done that?

I decided at 3 hours notice to hop on a 4 hour flight to surprise my BF who was arriving in Singapore for a 28 hour layover. I arived at the hotel a couple of hours after he flew in and just sat in the lobby until he walked by. He nearly jumped out of his skin when he saw me sitting there.
