Oh really? Well, it's my right to kick the seat in front of me, then.

Just kidding. It's not a big deal, of course I can just deal with it. But USMCdad was asking why it bothers some of us, so I answered.

What are some pet peeves to others, that you really don't mind?

Mine: Leaving time on the microwave. It doesn't bother me. Just click cancel.

My microwave will beep if you leave time on it

I leave it on then add time using the 30 sec button. No biggie.

Yeah I don’t get why this bothers anyone

Some of us can't sleep on planes and are trying to work. Peeps reclining seats = typing like a t-rex.

Work on a plane? Ain't nobody got time for that.

I bill 1 client for travel while billing another client to write my analysis

If your work involves billable hours you bet you're going to make time for that.

Sounds like a crappy job

WDaddy

4/17/19 11:58am

Pros and cons. I don't miss it, but wouldn't have gotten the job I have without experience in consulting.

I’ll let you in on a little secret, your seat reclines the same distance as well

USMCdad

4/17/19 10:46am

I know. That's not the issue. The problem is that a reclined seat means my laptop no longer fits in the tray table.

Sounds like poor planning on your part to leave work for the plane

What? I'm not claiming there's some time-sensitive thing I absolutely need to do on the flight.

Upgrade your seat then with the extra money you're making. Everyone else

WDaddy

4/17/19 11:59am

No, I'd rather have everyone else suffer so I can get rich.

Then recline in comfort and enjoy the flight, man

Sure. And I do that sometimes. But that wasn't the question I was answering.

Maybe you should just fly private then.

How do you people sit? Theres space underneath the chair to extend your legs.

Dillinger

I'm 6'2", and someone reclining is barely noticeable for me. What's the deal?

Dissenter

4/17/19 10:58am

I’m 6’4” and fly all the time and agree, it’s no big deal

USMCdad

4/17/19 11:38am

I’m 6’2” as well and it smushes my knees. Maybe you have a long torso.

I don't mind constantly bumping the reclined seat.
