Not totally in the scheme of things but i thought it was quite a good story - so i will share.
One of the larger carriers deceided new comapany policy for the captain of first officer to thank the passengers off the aircraft after the flight.
on that particular day the first officer had performed the landing and it was to say the least a tad hard.
due to the landing the captain deceided it was the FO's turn to thank the passenger.
Red faced the FO thanked each passenger for flying with X airline.
a little old lady with walking stick approached said FO and in a quiet croaky voice said "son, could i ask you a question?"
the FO smiled at the little old lady and replied in his best company voice "of course you can madam".
"well she said, i was just wondering if we landed or were SHOT down!!!"
and once again the FO was red faced.
