Remarkable Is Relative

Corporate Travel Edition
Dearest reader, the friendly skies have been serving up some absolute gems lately.

Our team has been traveling for months on a major client launch, and I've concluded that corporate travel only seems glamorous to people who don't actually do it.

For the rest of us, it's a rotating cast of:
✈️ Sprinting through airports for connections.
👁️ Watching people walk on planes in their socks with no shoes.
😴 Being confused by the people who fully commit to sleeping on airport floors. Eye twitch.

And then there's today's adventure.

I sent a video to a coworker from my Uber. The felt ceiling was hanging so low I had to duck and a mystery cord dangled overhead. The faux leather seats had at least three decades of stories.

But 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐈𝐅𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐧 𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨𝐬 have given me a whole new take on travel.

They are so darn funny.

Watching them react to a U.S. first time moment has been unexpectedly entertaining. The excitement over BBQ. The pilgrimage to Buc-ee's. The fascination with McDonald's Coke. The Waffle House adventures. And the Scots in Boston. Chug chug.

But seeing it through their eyes makes me realize … 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐧 “𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞” 𝐚𝐧𝐝 “𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞” 𝐢𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞.

What’s your FIFA fun watch?
