"sorry man I'm 6' 3", there's plenty of space back there"

"I'm 6' 2", care to go to hell?"

Ah ok, I got the actors mixed up...I thought you were the one who put the bag in the bin. I applaud you then

If I have one bag, it’s going in overhead and I’m taking the extra leg space. If you come in with two bags and want me to sacrifice leg space cause you didn’t check a bag and only putting one at your feet, screw off. By saying otherwise you are valuing your time saved waiting for a check bagged at arrival over my extra space.

Yeah PwC probably would move it for you. Overhead is for rollers. Everything else is lower priority. I get your logic however, no way to know how many bags a person has. Easier just to make a rule of thumb, rollers go up.

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.
