Okay, okay. I will say there's one part of it that I really do like is I often say to people, so I'm in airports a lot.

And I'll often say to people who are even there having a meltdown, like I've been at a gate when the flight's canceled and I see people immediately going to meltdown. And sometimes I'll say to anyone who's around me, I go like, hey, don't waste your time. Let's just go rebook. Trust me, just go rebook. You're wasting your time because you're going after the face of the problem. Yes.

Who has nothing to do with the problem. They don't know when the plane's coming. They can't clean the plane. They can't fix the plane. They can't do anything. They've just been told to tell you.
