Basically, yeah. The gen z and younger grew up with technology that was already developed and generally didn't need troubleshooting to get to work. The age of apps. You click, and it goes. If it doesn't, there's nothing you can really do about it. Where millennials grew up during the transition into the current technology we have. We had to learn on the more basic setups and make sure things were configured properly. We had to learn by necessity.

The plane will never dive at such an angle that the mask will swing all the way to the person in front of you.. If it is, you and the person in front of you are going to be too scared to grab the mask anyway.

Additionally, the masks are on a short tether when initially deployed. A tether too short to swing to the passenger in front. Theres the hose you see in the safety briefing thats long, but then an additional string attached from the mask to a pin that has to be pulled in order to start the chemical reaction in the O2 container. The reason it's so short is so you're forced to pull that pin out in the process of putting the mask on. Otherwise you would have to be instructed to pull the pin, which most people would forget in their panic.

So its extremely unlikely the person in front of you will even have the chance to grab the mask.

Just to expand from personal experience.

The procedure at my company was to fill the tanks with water and a small amount of bleach. Let it sit then flush the system till no bleach is detected on the test strip. But not only was the amount of bleach not measured, it wasn't left in long enough, and it was also rare for most of us to thoroughly test it afterward to verify we got all of it out..

Then the cart that we used to fill the tank? I never saw that thing cleaned. And the outside of the hose was pretty dirty. It was always capped but I can't imagine it was clean.

Don't drink hot drinks.

If you happen to live near the mexico border dental care over there is extremely cheap. $20 cleanings, crowns half the price of US at the same quality or better. Naturally, research the office, but there are a lot of good ones. If you needed major work flying down and getting it done is often still cheaper than staying in the US.

I personally dont have any recommendations for whitening, but it might be worthwhile to get a cleaning and an exam. As expensive as it may be, waiting is far more expensive. I learned that the hard way.

>So she got a widow's pension until the day she died.

I may be wrong, but isnt it only $25? Also OP copied the article, apparently she never took the pension.
