Hi guys and girls,
I have to say that its not only co-pilots who play this game !
There are enough captains who will utter the famous words: "I´m just going to take it easy on this one" at checkin.
I have had spells of very good trips, where everyone is up for a laugh, but also the reverse, where, as ray cosmic and belgianconnection said, you have to know how to entertain yourself - and I dont mean porn
It seems to go in cycles thou, and if you are on a three man trip/sector, the chances are better that at least one of the guys will be willing to leave their room.
I usually plan things for myself as a backup, and if the others dont want to do anything, then I have this plan to fall back on.
