On Communication (and medication)

Anyone who has talked to me in the last couple of days knows I have a terrible cold.  It's worse today than yesterday and I've been continuing to hack up a storm.  I have found my new wonder drug, though.  Robitussin Cough Gels.  The pharmacist at my local Shopper's recommended them and they are truly amazing.  One hour after taking two and I've just stopped coughing.  Just a tickle that goes nowhere.  What a huge relief.  I really wish I could take a nap, though.  (Cue me getting up to get coffee and Bailey's.  A deja vu moment in the AC lounge)

Now to communication.  Like everyone else, I like to complain about Air Canada.  Last night, however, they were quite efficient and friendly under fairly trying circumstances and I was very annoyed with the other passengers who were giving a very hard time to the people who were simply trying to help.  Today, however, I'm a little less impressed-not with the service, but with how AC has handled the situation with their employees.   Because I was told to last night, I came to the airport early because I would have to get my baggage from last night and then check it in again.  When I checked in, that was not the case, although the woman at the checkout counter had to double-check herself as she has been told the same thing as me.  I had her check again with someone else, just to be sure, and yet still have a feeling that my bags will not be meeting me in Mumbai.  At least there is a giant mall close to the hotel.
The other thing that bothers me is that I've spoken to four separate AC employees today and from the nice lady in Winnipeg in customer service to the woman guarding the entrance to the lounge, none have any clue what happened last night.   Each one did this stage whisper to me asking what went on.  I would have thought  Air Canada would have at least given them a little bit of a brief, but all they knew was what they had seen on the news.  Yes, it's sort of unprofessional to ask, but I can't blame them for being curious.  It just seems wrong that they have to.
Now to nap.  My wonder drug is making me extra dopey.
