I spotted a large holdall that was unattended,so quietly asked those around me if anyone owned it.They all said no.
At this point I motioned to a steward,who was down at the front of the tier,to come up,which he did.
I pointed out the holdall to him,and explained that nobody around claimed ownership of it.
You know what he did?
Picked it up and shook it.
Luckily nothing happened,and about 30 seconds later a bloke returned,with a Coke and a Hotdog,and asked why "we were messing around with his bag."
Fucking hell, the training really kicked in for that guy huh? "This might be a bomb. Ok. I'm shaking it to check!".
I walked in and went behind the counter and said to the owner (who I have known for years) and asked what she wanted me to download.
My reply was "fuckin hell" followed by a slight sweaty feel.
and I thought she liked me

Re: Up with the lark
I have a funny parcel story.
Years ago I worked for Royal Mail,and at Christmas they used to get some of the full time staff to randomly check bags of mail from the sorting frames the Christmas Casuals were working on for errors.
I tipped a bag of "Foreign" sorted parcels into a cage and began to check through it.
Part of the way through I came across a parcel addressed to a Worthing location.
I asked the woman who had sorted the item why she had put an item for Worthing in the Foreign bag,(as this was part of the way they were trained),and handed her the parcel.
She turned the package over,and handed it back to me,pointing to some writing.
The writing said,"FRAGILE CHINA."
