"The Businessperson"

Ingredients:
- 1 businessman or woman
- Large amount of stress
- Very short fuse
- Abundance of alcohol

Method:
- Instil feelings of self-importance (created by excessive waiting-on, and serving every whim.)
- Increase pressure and stress, whilst reducing control.
- Stir up thoroughly until an explosion occurs.
(For extra strength, add a four-hour delay).

And what do you get with this potent recipe?   AIR RAGE!   

Air rage is the term used for disruptive behaviour inflicted by passengers and sometimes even crew during a flight.  More often than not, we associate this type of psychological changes to alcohol use before or during the flight.  That could be the case. But, did you know that psychological changes could also happen to someone who is feeling anxious and stressed?  And, after a long meeting, waiting in lines and sitting through delays, air rage may ensue.

So, how do you avoid this from happening to you? 

• Bring something to keep you busy or relaxed during a long flight: snacks, games, a book, etc.
• Avoid excessive alcohol consumption, before or during the flight.
• Prepare yourself with the right attitude, in case a fellow passenger cause your short fuse to explode.    
• It would help a lot if you keep in mind that passenger interference is a Federal Crime and punishment is from 20 years to life (if armed) imprisonment.

 Don't let your anger or anxiety control you.
