flying home...

On Sunday, we woke up and drove to Green Bay, WI from Marquette.  It is about a 4 hour trip.  It was a beautiful drive and we arrived at the airport w/ plenty of time to check in.  So we do and check our luggage.  The attendant gave us our boarding pass and told us to go to the gate attendant to get our tickets.  So, we went up there and she told they were for the next leg of our flight and we'd get it later.

We sat down and were waiting for the flight to be called.  BUT, I was worried because we didn't have a seat assignment on the boarding pass.  So, I went to the attendant again and asked her about it and she said that they would figure it out later and let us know.  Okay.

So, about 15 minutes later they called us to the desk, Mat went up w/ our tickets and they slapped his tickets on the counter after banging away on the computer for a bit.  Mat asked if he could also get my tickets and they said yes, started banging away, were having trouble, there was another lady in line, so they helped her (not very nicely).  Then the girl looked back up at Mat blankly and said "What do you want?" (not very nicely).  Mat said "I'm waiting on the tickets you were getting for my wife."

I don't think we've ever had anyone be so blatantly mean to customers as we witnessed there!  And it's not because Wisconsiners are rude people, everyone we met at gas stations and at restaurants were beyond friendly.

And then the rest of our trip was uneventful and we were excited at the end of the day to be home w/ our dog.
