Northwest SUCKS!

You know how you hear about those horror story of airplane rides...well yesterday was the day from HELL! We got to Norfolk airport around 11:30am. We were at the gate right on time, boarded took our seats...and then we sat.

First there was something wrong w/ one of the wheels. So because Northwest Airlines is so cheap they didn't have a mechanic at the airport, only on-call, so he had to drive from his house to the airport to fix our plane. So he fixes the plane and we think, finally we may even still make our connector flight in Detroit.

Of course then we can't take off because there was bad weather in Detroit, so we got off the plane for an hour. We got back on and of course, an engine doesn't start. By this time the mechanic had gone back home. So they called the mechanic again and he came back. 5 hours later than we were supposed to, we were up in the air on our way to Detroit.

Needless to say we missed our connector and didn't get into Minneapolis until about 12:30am. Then to make matters worse, they didn't have our luggage! 23 people on the flight didn't have their bags. I mean, how stupid can people be!!!!

This morning I went to work w/ no makeup, not a brush through my hair and w/ 3 hours of sleep. So if you talked to me today and I was a little bit on edge, that is why!!!

NORTHWEST SUCKS!!!!
