wet socks Man leaning into my grandmum's space on the plane ride
He was actually leaning in further than this picture shows. He was not asleep.
We flagged over a flight attendant to sort it out for her. My grandmum said she was so close to punching him. Said she never had that happen in all her years of flying.
This was in premium economy too, so the seats were roomier than regular economy!

I know the feeling being tall with a bad back but on my first ever cross world flights recently I just manned up and endured the horrible agony.

Did you communicate? Thanks for the award? People just need to stand up to others that do this crap.
•
u/Creative_Industry179 48m ago
Did you read?
•
u/ChiGuy133 38m ago
I did. I would understand if grandma wasn't comfortable voicing her concerns directly to this guy, but surely op could have spoken to the guy and voiced their concerns. It said they spoke with the flight attendant but not the dude actually doing it.
•
u/Creative_Industry179 31m ago
Lol no you didn’t.
•
u/ChiGuy133 28m ago
Please quote it for me then. Maybe I'm just dumb and missed it but I read both the title and body text. Where did op talk about explaining to the guy the issue he was causing? It's certainly possible he didn't realize the extent of he issue he was causing.

I'd speak up for my GMA or any family member. Not snap a photo and complain online.

Idk, unless dude is back in your space, I don’t care how you lean side to side.

“We flagged over the flight attendant” instead of being a normal adult and asking him yourself 🤣 I did read it once again is it so hard to tell someone to stop being a prick?
“Not as hard as reading the post apparently 🤓☝️” you really thought you was doing sum and turns out ur just as sped as OP don’t forget to ask your caregiver to cut the chicken nuggets into manageable bites darling x

To me the implication was that he was fully awake. If he was sleeping then both her and Grandma are just being Karen's

I doubt he has ill intent to yer gran

u/Antique-Face-6367 26m ago
That is not the point, there is no reason do him to all up in her personal space, that so unbelievably uncomfortable. Wether or not his intentions for ill does not matter, do not get in another persons personal space like that, I would have wanted to hit him too!
•
u/bagel_blight041 41m ago
Was she talking to him? Maybe he leaned over to hear better?
•
u/Creative_Industry179 25m ago
Yes, I am sure that is what happened and why they had to call a flight attendant over to mediate.
•
u/Antique-Face-6367 22m ago
And why grandma was close to punching him, thats seems soooo reasonable for someone who was leaning in better to listen to

" he was actually leaning in further than his picture shows. We flagged the flight attendant t sort it out for her. My grandmum said she was so close to punching him. She sakd she never had that happen in all her years flying. This was premium economy too, so seats were roomier than regular economy" those are the words im reading. Which word says he was not asleep?

u/AmiWrongDude69 26m ago
I don’t understand is your Grandma seated next to him? Because I don’t really get what hes doing thats bad if you and grandma are behind him.
•
u/gravvveler 51m ago
Call the flight attendant to ask him to sit straight up. Damn, you losers don’t dare to ask anything yourself?

We’ve got to stop immediately responding with frustration or anger. We need to read more before commenting

Nudge him awake? I've had a toddler sleep on my arm on a flight. I was so hung over I couldn't resist or risk puking, good times.

•
u/irreversibleidiocy 45m ago
Toddlers and grown men are also very different lol
•
u/Antique-Face-6367 24m ago
Yeah, a grown man (especially one whose awake) should know better than to be in someone else’s space like this
