I had had a day at work yesterday. Numerous technical niggles that could have grounded us over in the Middle East and left 2 passengers very disappointed. However, we worked out a strategy to persuade the aircraft to behave which it did and we got away nice and safely. Every one happy. It had been a very early start and I was airlining home with BA. All was looking good and I was feeling quite smug with my carry on luggage, especially when they said that there was a delay in the German airport because of a lack of staff to load the luggage. (see? It's not just the UK).
I was even happier when a cabin crew member walked down, and said "I see you've confused 4D with 6D, your seat is further forward".
