Attendant: “Actually, you’re right, you can’t stand. You need to sit, and fasten your seat belt. We’re about to push back from the gate. But first I need that $10.”
Passenger: “No way!”
Attendant: “Sir, if you don’t comply, I will be forced to call the air marshal. And you really don’t want me to do that.”
Passenger: “Why not? Is he going to shoot me?”
Attendant: “No, but there’s a $50 air marshal hailing fee.”
Passenger: “Oh, all right, here, take the $10. I don’t believe this!”
Attendant: “Thank you for your co-operation, sir. Is there anything else I can do for you?”
Passenger: “Yes, it’s stuffy in here, and my overhead fan doesn’t seem to work. Can you fix it?”
Attendant: “Your overhead fan is not broken, sir. Just insert two quarters into the overhead fan slot.”
Passenger: “The airline is charging me for cabin air?”
Attendant: “Of course not, sir. Stagnant cabin air is provided free of charge. It’s the circulating air that costs fifty cents.”
Passenger: “I don’t have any quarters. Do you have change for a dollar?”
Attendant: “Certainly, sir. Here you go.”
Passenger: “But you’ve given me only three quarters for my dollar!”
Attendant: “Yes, there’s a change-making fee of twenty-five cents.”
Passenger: “For crying out loud! Now all I have left is a lousy quarter! What the heck can I do with this?”
Attendant: “Hang onto it, sir. You’ll need it later for the lavatory.”
