Within the same bloody minute \u00a0, before me getting to put up an answer,, Lufthansa texts me: \u00a0&#8221; We apologize that your flight LH2049 TXL-MUC 12Dec \u00a006:55 PM \u00a0has been cancelled. Further information is available on : https:\/\/m.lh.com\/MzQ4NzkwUXVMVw. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I say, Fuck ! Never had a cancelled flight before! Repeating what I already posted on FB as a status \u00a0I say that ,\u00a0It&#8217;s common during winter time to see the flight panel lighting like a Christmas tree , full of cancelled flights. Mine was always on&#8230; Maybe delayed at most. When i see such cancelled flights i always think with compassion of those who won&#8217;t be reaching their home in time and say to myself : You&#8217;re all faaaags! Today I&#8217;m the fag&#8230;<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Called instantly to Lufthansa customer service , pressing buttons to get support in English \u00a0got to a guy that was kind and offering me \u00a0variants to get to Bucharest. \u00a0I had to opt between a flight through Munich at 6:15 (LH2047 ) and \u00a0a flight through Frankfurt \u00a0at 18:45 (LH199). Being afraid that I may not get in time to LH2047, I opted for Frankfurt. The guy said he&#8217;d mail me the boarding passes. Done as said !<\/p>\n<p>NOOOT! I got boarding pass for \u00a0the earlier flight through Munich . Then, hit the road Jack ! Leaved 10 minutes earlier than usual from the office , took the bus, as is faster than the taxi at the time, paid the ticket to the driver with 25 coins for EUR 2.60 and \u00a0planned the trip. I knew already already that \u00a0this is not going to turn out simple , so was making plans while posting on FB and playing chess on my mobile to chill.<\/p>\n<p>Reached the airport. Looking \u00a0sharp for an ATM to draft out my weekly allowed per diem since I spent business from my own pocket- that is as important as going home. Or, if I ask my wife, \u00a0I&#8217;m useless if I go home \u00a0with empty pockets , isn&#8217;t it? Got the money , checked the status for the newly booked flight \u00a0, gone through security, posted myself in front of the boarding desk \u00a0 , still \u00a0 writing \u00a0posts on FB about how luck is an insignificant factor and all that matters is YOU. Oups \u00a0, I see \u00a0: &#8221;\u00a0Verspaetung&#8221; for 10 minutes . Ok 10 minutes is fine.<\/p>\n<p>Boarding starts , first for \u00a0Business Class , \u00a0Gold members and HON Circle..whatever that is &#8230; My turn! I have an iPhone with 50%battery and a passbook, ha! I&#8217;m damn modern.. like 80% of the passengers for this flight. Put down the phone scanned the code : I hear a long bip , the \u00a0scanning screen goes red and there&#8217;s a message : \u00a0&#8220;Nicht autorisiert&#8221; &#8230; Oh ,that can&#8217;t be good!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lady Boarding Officer 1<\/strong>: &#8211; Oh , your boarding card is not valid !<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> \u00a0Well, it&#8217;s coming from \u00a0you guys .

So good to know that someone waits for you! I am so fuckin&#8217; important!<\/p>\n<p>Boarding starts ..hmm delayed as well. \u00a0Not going to stand aside . I am a Romanian , most importantly an Oltenian . I have sharp elbows and using them to get ahead with the printed board card. \u00a0I know for sure that it&#8217;s going to \u00a0long beep again , but scanning it to get in a discussion with Mr. Boarding officer ( The Father Grinch). Apparently you can&#8217;t interrupt these people from whatever they&#8217;re doing , so you just have to play your way into their attention! Beeep.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Father Grinch:<\/strong> \u00a0&#8220;Nicht autorisiert&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> I know , I have a rescheduled flight to this one and the lady at the counter 9 sent me here , to find out if there&#8217;s a free place \u00a0in the plane \u00a0( Yeah , twisting \u00a0a bit the truth)<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Father Grinch:<\/strong> \u00a0But you have no seat on your ticket .

See you! Oh wait ! At what counter should I wait?<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Father Grinch:<\/strong>9!<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;Saying hi to security as I need to get out &#8230;Beep Beep ! Conveniently , there&#8217;s \u00a0just nobody at the counter 9. Waiting ..for 3 to 5 minutes. \u00a0The phone&#8217;s ringing at the counter desk &#8230; nobody&#8217;s there . Should I be bold and answer? Someone \u00a0comes and picks up another phone , but it was obvious that was not the one ringing. He puts it down and off he goes. Are these guys that idiots?! Phone rings again and I am thinking to go and pick up!<\/p>\n<p>Some \u00a0young \u00a0nice looking lady ( from Lufthansa) passes \u00a0by. I am thinking if I still have \u00a0the charm of a young man in need that can make me \u00a0find my way with her. I look \u00a0downwards and I see my jacket \u00a0tied with just one button , my tie is \u00a0slanting and my shirt is out of pants ..partially. Still, finding my confidence!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> Hello , I am \u00a0on a waiting list for a seat in the flight 199 , could you please let me know if there&#8217;s any seat \u00a0unoccupied by now ?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nice Looking Lady :<\/strong>Umm, by now?

Oh , now I wish I could understand this language! Within about 2 \u00a0minutes she seems to have clarified something. I am wondering if she clarified that the plane took off , or that there are no more seats ( some one has maybe taken my seat ) &#8230; or \u00a0that I can go!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lady at the Counter 8:<\/strong> Go again there, quickly !<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> Thank you!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me to the Nice Looking Lady:<\/strong> Can you please assist my way there ?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nice Looking Lady :<\/strong> Please follow me !<\/p>\n<p>She puts me ahead at the security check (Yeah !) , I apologize to the people standing for me to pass, \u00a0not that I really care now , \u00a0but it&#8217;s nice to do it!<\/p>\n<p>Saying <strong>hi<\/strong> to the security guys again , getting checked .

Sure they are partly idiots , as most people in the world , but some of them really get you through..if you really wish \u00a0the victory, how they say in football . And the <strong>Lady at the Counter 8<\/strong>! I have to thank her, \u00a0personally and I hope I&#8217;ll remember her face! \u00a0And the guys that couldn&#8217;t get home . I maintain my point! The sum of everything \u00a0is made of what you do and how you react. There&#8217;s no luck \u00a0that you can&#8217;t change . Just need to see the best way \u00a0to change your path and do it fast&#8230; Faster than all the rest! That&#8217;s the challenge and it&#8217;s not about going home, but about getting what you want. This time , I did it without yelling , screaming , cursing , stealing , or lying . Well, I had to twist the things in my favor few times , but it can&#8217;t all be straight!<\/p>\n<p>No such thing as bad karma<\/p>\n<p>Is that motivational , or what?<\/p>\n<p>P.S. Please overlook the occasional mistakes in the text . I&#8217;m in a hurry and no time to corect!
