Mi piace "mediamente", suona come piuttosto comodo. Ti spiace se lo uso anch'io anche se sono un gentile?

Come si dice negli USA "Be my guest", anche se 'mediamente osservante' vuol dire rispettare una certa serie di regole in un modo praticato dalla media degli ebrei osservanti che non si identificano con gli ultra-ortodossi. Credimi, di "comodo" c'e' ben poco.
Grazie. Vorrà dire che continuerò col classico "cattolico non praticante".
Ciao

Southwest si è dovuta scusare per il comportamento di una sua impiegata, che ha sghignazzato leggendo che una bimba aveva per nome ABCDE, ed ha postato su FB la relativa carta d'imbarco.
Southwest Airlines apologises after girl named Abcde was mocked by employee
30 Nov 2018 08:34AM (Updated: 30 Nov 2018 08:50AM)
Abcde Redford (who pronounces her name "ab-city") was with her mother Traci Redford at John Wayne Airport in California catching a flight home to El Paso, Texas on Nov 2 when the incident happened, ABC7 reported on Wednesday (Nov 28).
The five-year-old, who has epilepsy, was waiting with her mother to board when a gate agent saw her name on her boarding pass and started making fun of her, said the news report.
"The gate agent started laughing, pointing at me and my daughter, talking to other employees. So I turned around and said, 'Hey if I can hear you, my daughter can hear you, so I'd appreciate if you'd just stop'," Redford told the news station.
The gate agent also took a photo of Abcde's boarding pass and posted it on Facebook, she said.
Added Redford: "While I was sitting there, she took a picture of my boarding pass and chose to post it on social media, mocking my daughter.
"It was actually brought to my attention by somebody who had seen it on Facebook and reported it to Southwest Airlines. And after two weeks of doing a formal complaint, Southwest hadn't done anything."
According to ABC7's report, Redford's daughter had asked her why staff members were laughing at her.
"She said 'Mom, why is she laughing at my name?' And I said not everyone is nice and not everyone is going to be nice and it's unfortunate."
The airline issued a statement to ABC7 apologising for the incident, adding that it had "followed up with the employee involved".
"We take great pride in extending our Southwest hospitality to all of our customers, which includes living by the Golden Rule and treating every individual with respect, in person or online," ABC7 reported the statement as saying.
"The post is not indicative of the care, respect and civility we expect from all of our employees."

In cabina il comandante è donna, frasi sessiste sul volo Torino-Bari
Battute e allusioni sul volo Blue Air da parte di un gruppo di passeggeri
di Massimo Massenzio
Il volo Torino- Bari dura poco più di un’ora e mezza. Il tempo di allacciare le cinture per il decollo, rilassarsi, magari sfogliare un giornale o qualche pagina di un libro. E poi ci si deve subito preparare per l’atterraggio. Volendo, si può anche scambiare qualche parola con il proprio vicino di posto, ma può capitare di essere sfortunati. Ed essere costretti a condividere il ristretto spazio di un aereo con passeggeri non proprio piacevoli, impegnati a spendere i novanta minuti a loro disposizione con battute sessiste e allusioni da osteria.
È quello che è successo mercoledì a Gianni Svaldi, giornalista del magazine Radici Future, che per lavoro si è trovato a viaggiare su un apparecchio Blue Air decollato da Caselle alle 17,35. In cabina di pilotaggio c’era il capitano Laura. Anche se il fatto che si trattasse di una donna, nel 2018, non avrebbe dovuto avere alcuna rilevanza. E invece ha scatenato paure, allusioni e risate sguaiate. «I primi commenti sono arrivati quando eravamo sulla scaletta — racconta sdegnato Svaldi —. Non solo dagli uomini, ma soprattutto dalle donne. E ogni gradino si trasformava in un podio di inciviltà». Svaldi, individuato il suo posto, si augurava che il peggio fosse passato, ma si sbagliava. La signora vicino a lui, trolley a fiori e acconciatura giallo-riflettente, dopo aver saputo della presenza di una donna in cabina di pilotaggio, si è rivolta preoccupata al suo giovane accompagnatore: «Mi faccio il segno della croce». Un uomo in giacca e cravatta si è portato invece la mano alla patta dei pantaloni esclamando: «O Madonna mia!».
La pilota è stata immediatamente declassata da primo a secondo pilota: «Guarda un po’, il copilota è una donna. Speriamo che non si metta a chattare», dice un ragazzo alla sua fidanzata. Che ha replicato con una risata fragorosa. Alla fine l’aereo è atterrato, dolcemente e in perfetto orario: «Ogni volta che volerò penserò alle tante Laura — conclude Svaldi — che portano sulla schiena il peso di essere donne, ma riportano a casa i loro passeggeri sani e salvi. Anche gli imbecilli».

Ma perchè questo signor Svaldi non è intervenuto? poteva riprendere gli imbecilli, poteva chiamare un assistente di volo, o chiedere di parlare col Comandante, che (uomo o donna che sia) se ha le palle, non lesina sul cazziatone ai fenomeni. Trovo penoso, davvero PENOSO scriverne un articolo. Leoni da tastiera radical chic del cazzo.

Family had to sit on floor of TUI plane
A family returning from holiday found they had no seats once they had boarded their plane and spent part of the flight sitting on the floor.
Despite having boarding passes, the Taylor family found empty spaces where their seats should have been.
The family, from Alcester, Warwickshire, had paid £1,300 and were flying from Mahon in Menorca to Birmingham with TUI airlines.
The Civil Aviation Authority is looking into the matter.
The family raised the issue with BBC One programme Rip Off Britain: Holiday.
Paula Taylor told the show that she, her husband and 10-year-old daughter had got to the airport early, in June, to make sure they were seated together.
Their seat numbers were 41 D, E and F. But when they got on the plane there was an empty space underneath the numbers.
"We all just looked at each other as if to say 'where's our seats gone?'," Mrs Taylor said.
Once all the passengers had boarded there was just one seat left. Mrs Taylor's daughter Brooke was given that seat while she and her husband were given flip-up seats in the crew section.
But once the flight had taken off, crew were busy serving food and other items stored behind those seats and Mr and Mrs Taylor had to go and sit on the floor, in the space their seats should have been. They were joined by Brooke as she did not want to sit alone.
The family say they were thanked by the plane crew for their understanding.
But Mrs Taylor says she was given short shrift when she raised the matter with TUI and was eventually offered a goodwill gesture of £30.
After the family contacted Rip Off Britain, TUI refunded their fares and said a "last-minute aircraft change" meant the family's assigned seats were unavailable, as the alternative aircraft had a different seating configuration.
It said it was "sorry for the way the situation was initially handled" and will contact the family directly to apologise.
The Civil Aviation Authority says while passengers are allowed to sit in crew seats under certain conditions, they must not be left unseated during any stage of the flight. It told Rip-Off Britain it would be contacting TUI for an explanation.

Passeggero disabile costretto (causa mancanza di sedia a bordo) a trascinarsi per tutto l'aereo e a scendere dalle scale: https://thepointsguy.com/news/parap..._-Jo3ZzE5n1cqeiL5-qddu1_jjkvQWTe36NKRXnftdMlM

Sembra piu' un problema di handler che di carrier; "...on both flights that landed at ORD, an aisle chair couldn’t be mustered up in time to transport Schilhabel to his connecting flight. Thus, United staff and Schilhabel had to, once again, take matters into their own hands."
Spiace per il passeggero e per chiunque sia stato messo in difficolta', crew incluso.
