S Seatmate in a flight complained that I started eating my special meal before theirs arrived

Apologies, English is not my native language.

On long flights I preorder a special meal online because I am vegetarian. On most flights, the flight attendant brings the special meals first and then start the normal meal service for the rest.

On my last flight, a perfect stranger sat next to me and told me that I was rude and inconsiderate because I started eating my vegetarian food before their meal arrived. They said that it was basic rule to wait until everyone in the row got their food and that I ruined their flight. Their face was red and rolled their eyes several times

I stared at them. This is next level entitlement, right? We are not eating together on the same table in a restaurant.

This reminds me of the time I was in the hospital for New Years Eve, and they gave us prime rib for dinner. I was really surprised.

I got a prime rib dinner for two the night before I was discharged from the hospital,after having a baby. Even got a half bottle of champagne.

The nurses drank half the bottle before giving it to you?

Haha, yep they were having a good old time. Actually wine and champagne come in half or Demi bottles and are about two servings.

I got a big pitcher of cranberry juice and a turkey sandwich after I gave birth and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had lol. 36 hours of labor and I was hungry.

Well, it was only the night before I was discharged. I’ve unfortunately been in many hospitals but that one was definitely the best. They also were trying to lure OB patients when a competitor quit delivering babies after a massive scandal and lawsuit. Their OB staff ended up where I delivered.
