OMG!! I read the article in the paper this morning, but Colbert's report was so much better. My stepdaughter and I laughed so much when watching your video clip. Thanks for posting (we're cable deficient at our house).

His (Slater's) actions sure seem to hit us where we live. I think we all get it.

Agreed, having worked with the public for 30 years + I totally understand. There are people who live their lives to abuse service workers in any capacity. I'm sure you've seen it as a nurse and I know I've seen it as a therapist. I've had some really verbally and mentally abusive patients and families.

At least now I know it's about Steven Slater - what a story! We've all been there - metaphorically, not sliding down the chute - but I can see where he's been and why he flipped. Some character!
