This is not a thick passenger comment, but a story I thought worth sharing.
Pax to crew: May I have a pen please?
Crew: Sorry Sir, I do not have one.
Pax: What's that in your pocket then?
Crew: That is my own pen, Sir, the company do not provide us with pens to give to customers.
Pax: So you DO have a pen then! Why did you say you didn't?
Crew: I'm sorry Sir but it is my own pen.
Pax: But if you HAVE a pen, you shouldn't say you don't have one. But if you do have one, can I have it?
Crew: Once again, sorry Sir, but it is my own pen.
This goes on for a while then:
Crew: Look, Sir, I am not WH Smith, this is my own pen I bought with my own money and I will not give it to you.
Pax: Well, I think you are rude, I'm going to write in a complaint about you!
Crew: No, you ain't, cos you haven't got a pen!
