We all got really lucky, regardless of where we were fortunate enough to *choose* to go (imagine that term a decade+ ago).

Woman Threatens to Pee in Airplane Aisle, Pulls Down Pants and Squats
A woman on a Frontier Airlines flight threatened to pee in the aisle when a flight attendant blocked her from using the restroom, going so far as to pop a butt-naked squat next to horrified passengers.

I had a FO a few years back that used the LAV in flight every leg. I'm like dude, we're doing IAD to MDT. I think in the 5 years flying the 145 I used the LAV 3 times.Ugh I had to do the walk of shame in the ERJ one day parked on a taxiway while on a ground stop in IAH. Eyes down past 50 souls to the hole in the back.
No vacuum flush in those days

Peeing in a light airplane is surprisingly hard, and people know that bottle you're taking into the FBO ain't apple juice.

Repeat Offender
I knew a mechanic that worked for Gulfstream going off into the wild blue yonder for test flights prior to delivery but after outfitting. Sometimes these flights could last well over 8 hours at the service ceiling to ensure everything got properly cold soaked and then test all of the cabin systems. That included ensuring audio/video, Wi-Fi, pocket doors and cabinets, potable water storage/heating and drains, and of course that the toilets worked as advertised. He told me the common practice was to go buy at least three cans of Hormel meat chili to verify both toilets worked properly and sometimes a pair a of board shorts and a beach towel to verify the shower worked. I've never showered or pooped on a plane, but he said occasionally he would come back with at least one can of chili.

Took my family on PSTs to Hawaii on our 737-800. MAX9 on the way back. Zero issues with seats or the plane type.
I do have to wonder about people complaining about plane seats, let’s just say it’s not the plane size, it’s their own size. (No offense, not calling you or Derg fat. Just a general observation of the American public).

No flying job is ever “safe” in that sense.
Some of these new pilots who have skated up to a major with multiple CJOs and fairly easy street, are going to have a very shocked rude awakening if/when their first furlough or merger/SLI occurs.

Yup.
They wouldn’t know a setback if it hit them in the face. Been on easy street the past few years, with the exception of 12 months during the pandemic. And even that was full of PSP and bailouts.

You’re less than six feet tall, aren’t you?
Exactly. Over 6 feet and economy is brutal. Add in some weight lifting and your shoulders aren’t going to fit well in a middle seat.
