I'm in San Francisco again this week on business. I flew United on Saturday morning. For some inexplicable reason, my original flight at 6:45AM was cancelled, and I got bumped to the 8:55AM flight. No one seemed to have any idea why my original flight was cancelled. I was like "You shouldn't call yourselves United! You guys don't seem to be "United" in your information."
The flight was nice. I slept and watched some DVDs of Arrested Development and House, my new favorite shows. Towards the end of our flight we were offered a snack. The choices were "Chicken & Fruit" or "Fruit & Cheese." The flight attendant went down the aisle and got to me. I chose the Chicken & Fruit and was given my plate pretty quicly. Then I could hear the flight attendant ask the person behind me. "Would you like Chicken & Fruit or Fruit & Cheese?" The guy behind me replied, "Can I get Chicken & Cheese?" "Um, I'm sorry, sir. We can't mix the plates," the flight attendant told the disappointed passenger.
On her way back to the galley, I rolled my eyes with the flight attendant. I heard her tell another flight attendant "Some guy just asked for Chicken AND Cheese!"
Some people can be so difficult.

Two Choices, Not Three

Chicken and fruit sounds like an odd combo. Blech!
I work in IT too. I do POS Support for a retail chain nased in San Francisco. I live on the Upper West Side so I spend a lot of time on United trans-cons. I came back on the 1:30 this afternoon. Steak and cheese sandwich. mmmmmm. I watched 'Kinsey' on my laptop. Or at least the first hour. After that I slept. What a way to earn a living, huh?
Mmm...chicken and cheese. Well, it sounds like that Chicken Kiev dish, where you slash it open and the cheese oozes out.
