Ok, for some reason, rental car employees seem to get asked bizarre questions that are totally unrelated to our jobs. We rent cars; we aren't airport employees, we aren't airline employees, etc. Well, here is the list of some of the crap I get asked on a daily basis:
1) Can you tell me where Delta flight 610's baggage is being off loaded?
2) Can you tell me if my cousin got onto a flight? (After the third time I was asked this in a 40 minute period, I pretended to look up the flight and told the person their loved one was detained by authorities.)
3) Why do the restaurants upstairs close at 7:00?
4) How long will it be until bags are off loaded again? (When lightning hits within five miles the ramp shuts down for safety purposes.)
5) What is the weather like in Atlanta and why is the flight being delayed?
6) How much does it cost for a shuttle to xxxxxx place? (Geez, I have no clue, but I can rent you a car.......)
7) How much does xxxx car company charge to rent a car for a week?
8) What baggage claim am I near? (If people would look right behind them, they would see HUGE signs that say what carosel they are near.)
9) (IRATE humanoid) "Contintental is not at their ticket counter and I want YOU to find out where they are!!"
These people are just bizarre. I am convinced that when people enter the doors of an airport they lose any bit of common sense they may have once had.
