People at the airport are mean

So people at the airport are needlessly mean. Like today there was a woman in the Rudy's dinner line. And she was wearing her passport around her neck so she's obviously not from around here. So at first I smile. No response. And then I couple seconds later I heard a squeal from the back of the line as I was deciding not to eat there (I eventually went back but whatever ) well it looked like she had dropped/caught something, regardless she looked frazzled. So of course trying to give good ole America a good name/reputation for once
Me: (cheery) are you ok?
Her: ya! ( with a snarl).

Honestly we all know the airport sucks. All I was trying to do was make it a bit better for somebody but I totally got shot down. It was such a bummer/lose of faith in humanity moment. Like come on!

And then even the smallest acts of kindness at the airport are gamechangers. Like today a women told me today to get a tag since my bag had wheels. And I'm all like
THANK YOU I love you! Like every thing is amplified. So peeps, be nice at the airport

(sidenote: did I mention I wrote this on my phone while waiting for TGB to come pick me up since he went to the wrong airport?? This was before I knew that's why he was late though)
