Anyways, I digress from talking about a more recent incident that happened to us as well while we were at the airport on the way back home, involving a Caucasian. For once, we were fairly early and the check in counters had just opened. So there were, heading towards the counter, me pushing the trolley full of bags, and the wibblewamble carrying our offspring. We were very happy to see no queues for checking in and headed straight for the nearest available counter. As we were proceeding there, we saw a Caucasian male with a suitcase and a golfbag on his trolley come from the business class side of the queue around the barrier to the counters.
What happened next shocked me. He moved very quickly to cut off wibblewamble who (i say again) was carrying our baby in her arms, and pushed his passport energetically at the counterstaff. To do that, he nearly ran down wibblewamble with his baggage trolley and arrived so close to her that the girl behind the counter thought they were together! A diagram of the incident (hyperbole and a half style):
After ww glared at him as i was catching up several steps behind (and picking up my jaw from the floor), we went to the next available counter with nary a word from him to us, let alone an apology. Just for good measure, we went to an available counter 3 counters away.
I really don't understand how shameless and brainless this idiot is. I wouldn't make much of the colour of his skin, but he really had the "white man superior" syndrome. Amazing thing was, because he had to push his golfbag on his trolley to the seperate oversized baggage check-in, i saw that nearly ran over another guy with his trolley again with nary an apology.
I hope his golf scores are always in the triple digits, but from his character, I wouldn't be surprised if he cheats at his golf scores as well. What a douchebag.
