🚨 Flight delayed! Landed at 11PM instead of 7PM. They weren’t sure if their transportation was still waiting. They were tired, stressed, and unsure what to do.![]()

But… they had my cell number.📱They called—I answered. I talked them through it. Crisis averted. 🙌![]()
Then… a 1AM butt dial. 😅It rang once. I didn’t answer—but I did call back, just in case. He said "you're up late".. .Spoiler: I was not. 😂😴![]()
