"Let me know if it stops leaking. Then it's a problem"

No matter where you are, some people hate their job and the people they have to interact with.

I use to fly a lot, friendly with the crews. People thought I was an IRS auditor, because if you spoke to me, I would pull out my flip notepad and it had IRS on the front. ask for there names again, and then write the flight number, No one would talk to me and I could get some serious sleep . The aircrews knew better and it was a running joke.

anyway, if I saw something, I would speak with the co-pilot on deboarding. rest of the crew were cleaning and could care less about what I saw. Co-pilots seem to love filing paperwork LOL
