excited

I just got in from LAX...
...and boy are my arms tired! (Ok, bad joke.) :P

I did a Day in the Field at LAX yesterday in the Operations Dept. Different from Customer Service, which is what I do for No Frills Airlines, the Ops Agents board the flights, drive the jetways, do the weight and balance calculations, calculate how much fuel the plane is going to need, and basically do all the technical stuff so the CSAs are free to help the customers.

It was a lot of fun. I worked hard, running up and down jetways, crawling under the planes, doing math in my head. And it was hot and humid in L.A. this week. That never happens in So. Cal. but go fig. It was crazy, and of course we had the usual drama (plane was almost too heavy to take off, that sort of thing). But I made new friends, and if I ever get a job up at LAX, I'll know people! ;)
