Help help! Is this message showing up on anyone else's Billbery? This is George Darrow, Intern for Public Relations, Business Class Upper Deck 81C -- can someone please help me with my seat-belt? I've tried to undo the buckle for the last ten minutes and I SWEAR I actually paid attention during the safety demonstration given by the flight

Is everything okay now, George?

[curseyouxerox]

Sam! I think so, but now I can't figure out how to open the door to the washroom! How do these things work anyway? Mom -- It's been awhile since I've been on a plane.

Once you go in you have to pull the latch all the way to the left side. If you don't, the lights aren't going to be totally on. Then when you're done you just pull it right.

That's it? There's no button I have to press or anything along those lines in order to lock and unlock it? I wouldn't want to embarrass anyone by having them walk in on my doing my business, and I wouldn't want to get locked in when I'm done. Or WOULD I?

This is pathetic.

[curseyouxerox]

Yes it is, sir. I won't do it again.

[vancelias]

If it does, don't whine like a five year old girl.

[curseyouxerox]

I'd say I was asking for help rather than whining, but whatever you say is always right, sir. Thank you for the advice.

Don't feel too badly, George. Seat belts can be tricky sometimes. Everything alright now?

[curseyouxerox]

Thank you, ma'am! I'm glad to see that someone understands, though not to say that everyone else hasn't also said some VERY reasonable things as well. Everything is certainly all right now, ma'am, and thank you again.

[sinceremaggie]

I wish you'd stop calling me ma'am...

Not a problem, George. If you need saving again anything else, just come and find me.
