I love how ppl (and for some reason it seems EY is over represented) whine about this like the seat is moving 18". I mean, it's like 3" of travel at the top of seat, much less lower. Makes me wonder what other 3" measures they exaggerate.

Why not? My head constantly bobs down while napping if I don’t recline at least a bit.

I will nap in comfort on my 50 min flight, thankyouverymuch. Roll those eyes back to their normal position.

Reclining seats is a dick move no real way around it

I recline my seat everytime. The more pissed I feel the person behind me will get, more the recline.

They pay for a seat that reclines. They have the right to recline it.

Pretty simple concept.

I’d prefer someone reclining on a 1 hour flight over a 4 hour flight. If it’s that short, why bother opening your laptop

We all know what it's like to try to work on a laptop within the space available in economy, and how those few inches of recline from the person in front really do made the difference between cramped-but-manageable and having to orient your keyboard on an angle toward your chest just so you can see your screen. So yeah, you can use the recline if you want to but if you're in economy and there's someone behind you on a laptop, you're a dick. Sorry, that's all there is to it.

like

I recline my seat because it takes the stress off my back. I don't do a full recline since I think it's unnecessary for both the person in the seat and the person behind. But I'm not about to apologize for not killing my back by staying in a non-ergonomic position so you can turn your seat into an office. There are seats in economy where you can pay for extra space to work just like I pay for my seat to recline.

Btw A5, You don't want to nap on those tables. I used to but have since learned people do actually change baby diapers on there. Read online and confirmed by a flight attendant friend.

Seats recline these days?

You know what also is a jerk move? People doing things that affect the people in front of them. Take out reclining. People bump the front seat, yank on the seat to get in and out, and drop/shove the tray table. Just accept that people are going to disrupt your happy bubble and realize you also might be a jerk sometimes. Pretty simple concepts.

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
