Random Compliment at the Airport
I'm travelling again - this time for fun instead of work (although I'm hoping to get some sellable photos out of this trip so I can write it off! :) ).
I'm standing in the security line and it happened for the first time. The officer glanced at my driver's license ... then looked again. Then held it up and looked at me. Then smiled and said "You've lost quite a bit of weight Ms. XXXXX. You look fantastic. Have a safe flight and a great day." *thud* I thanked her and smiled the entire rest of the way to the gate. I don't know why a random stranger's comment can make me feel so good, but it really made my morning. Maybe I'm in a good mood 'cause I'm about to spend 3 days with my sweetie, but this just sort of capped it all off. :D . |
Wow, that's quite the compliment! Congratulations!

But this woman - a complete stranger - obviously had to do a double take on my drivers license. So that was just cool. :) . |
:D That must have been wonderful!
But you totally deserve it. ;) |
That is so awesome PC! You have worked very hard, you deserve the recognition, and didn't it feel GREAT!?!
|
Gosh, I DESPISE the random comments when someone checks my ID. I don't know, it just makes me really uncomfortable.
If you like it, though, get used to it! It happens more and more. I can't wait to get my new license with new photo. Congrats on getting a compliment you enjoyed! |
wow Photo! I can just see how good that must have felt. Just like Nixie said, I believe those un-biased comments have a bigger impact just because the lady was just stating the truth and nothing else :)
Have fun with your sweetie. |

I've been accused of using a fake ID. THAT was fun. I actually carry my passport now (more recent photo) in case that happens again.
My bank card is the WORST. Looks NOTHING like me. |

That's so cool! I am over the moon when something like this happens.
Enjoy the time with your SO. |
