To know Jeff Tippins is to know two Jeff Tippinses. “Calm Jeff,” who greets passengers with a pleasant smile, whose face isn’t all purple and veiny and doesn’t throw things. Then there’s “Mad Jeff,” who, well, isn’t a very nice fella to be around. Luckily for everyone, Calm Jeff has been able to keep Mad Jeff, as Calm Jeff says, “chained up in the back shed” a lot more lately. Just last week, confronted by one of our valued passengers clearly violating the “one pillow per passenger” rule, Mad Jeff nearly made an appearance. But Calm Jeff took control, walking away from the situation, locking himself in the lavatory and counting slowly to 1,000, just as his doctors recommended.
Way to go, Calm Jeff! Keeping one’s inner-rage in check when in the presence of customers. That’s SkyHigh to the core.
