Warning for coffee shop employees, if you ask me how my morning is going, you are, by definition, asking this before I've had coffee, so you might get An Answer
@ricci A baby in a coffee shop beats babies on long plane rides, that's for sure. We had dueling cryers in seats behind and two ahead of us on our recent 5 hour flight.... and those parents tried their best...
@rebeccawb@ricci as long as the parents are trying I have all the sympathy in the world. I've been the parent with an inconsolable child on a flight (in all fairness it was a noon flight to Orlando. there is a contractual guarantee there will be at least one crying child on that flight). noise cancelling headphones are a must for me when I travel alone
@kstatz12@ricci I felt for the parents. Hopefully communicated that. And my noise cancelling headphones were packed in my checked bag (that was on me)! As a parent, I also empathize with people who are taking care of multiple kids, too... the baby just being one of several.
