The BIG Fuss


The man depicted inside the picture (pictured right and partially hidden) was an angry man onboard our delayed flight back from Shantou.

Claimed to be a frequent traveller to countless places (as overheard in the departure hall that he boasted to all before boarding), he was upset for the fact that his hand-carried luggage "was shifted out of his 'slot' without his knowledge" and registered his unpleasantness to the cabin crew.

"How could you shifted my belongings without telling me!" he berated the crew in Mandarin when they answered to his call.

Apparently, in the process of pushing and stacking those luggages stored in the overhead compartment, some of the passengers or the cabin crew unknowingly shifted his luggage.

"What if I did not check when I disembark and lost my stuff in the process, who shall be responsible?

"At least, you should have informed me before the rearrangement, right?" he barked continuously as if the crew understood what he was saying.

Shortly, we were told to disembark from the plane due to some unforeseen technical problems.

"Because my passport and monies are inside this bag" said this "frequent traveller" when I passed him on my way out of the exit, while he was cautiously checking his belongings.

For someone who claimed to be a "globe-trotter", how could he kept his travel documents and monies away from him when common sense tells us these items shall always be with us all the time?
