I dated a flight attendant for a while that brought her toys with her...she said she got a lot of interesting looks at Security each time.

I brought a giant decorative wooden spoon and a fork. Like 3ft each. Customs in Germany found it hilarious, customs in Turkey were aghast that Germany let it pass and tried to claim I could use them as a weapon (and proceeded to demonstrate hitting someone over the head with a wooden spoon). My ensuing laughter and the laughter of some of her colleagues made her let me pass with a ‘just this time’ warning.

Underwear, not in a package or a bag. 10-15 pair of underwear, they looked clean but he loaded them 2-3 to a bin. No luggage at all, just underwear.

Four Family-size cans of Campbell’s soup. Where are you going that you can’t buy canned soup? TSA confiscated it due to liquidity and size.

A family with 25-30 pairs of shoes, mostly athletic ones, maybe 7-8 per bag, no other stuff in the bags. They were randomly packed, often not both shoes in a pair in the same bag.

What’s everyone’s favorite non-bourbon American whiskey? Balcones Single Malt may be on top of my list right now, but Angels Envy is also up there. A bourbon mash aged in port wine casks is just too good of a combo.

First year associate here- started virtually last month. Any advice on how to approach asking for work? I find myself waiting on responses/assignments from the people I’m currently working with and too often being ghosted when I reach out to them. Should I just start emailing everyone in the group that I’m available? First job and no real guidance on this issue other than to “enjoy the downtime while I have it” yet I can’t help but feel like I should be doing more.
