JL Lycette MD, author🩺📚<p>Many years ago, as a college student, I was flying home, and as I stood in the aisle waiting for the slow-moving boarding queue to allow me to reach my seat, the flight attendant did their typical “welcome aboard” announcement, only I noticed the flight number was not my flight. I glanced down at my ticket to confirm (the days of paper tickets), and indeed, the number didn’t match. I knew, however, that the flight number at the gate had matched my ticket, and also the gate attendant had verified my ticket on boarding. I glanced around, a bit anxious now, but no one else seemed concerned. I made my way back up to the front of the plane, and politely asked the flight attendant to confirm the flight. A couple of man-bros (yes, they’ve always existed)in first class overheard, and started laughing and loudly making fun of me for getting on the wrong flight. Only a few moments later, the flight attendant got back on the coms to announce that she had announced the wrong flight number. The men promptly shut up and stopped laughing but didn’t apologize to me. Anyway, this whole thing rather feels like a metaphor for our current existence…</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/life" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>life</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/stories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stories</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/metaphor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>metaphor</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/women" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>women</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/experiences" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>experiences</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/listening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>listening</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/PayAttention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PayAttention</span></a></p>
