YVR bastard

So i went on a flight down to san diego today and for luggage had my normal 20 inch roller bag and laptop backpack as a personal item. It was all nice and peachy until i met this prick at the gate before the security screening. He refused to let me take the roller and laptop backpack on and stated you're only allowed 1 carry on and 1 personal item (which was the laptop bag). I said that's what it was and he said no, the laptop is considered as an item itself and they changed the rules last month. I'm thinking wtf are you on about, they change that back and i flew in and out of the US last week with the same items. Once he heard that he then quickly said oh they changed it again yesterday. What a joke. So after 20 mins of argueing with this retard I went and stood in a 20 min lineup at checkin again to check my laptop bag and carried my laptop naked, as my roller was full of camera gear, as a 2nd item and was charged $30 from United. This is also fuked up because my colleague checked 2 bags with United on the flight after me for free whereas i was charged for the 2nd. When i flew back to Canada from the US last month with United, I was even charged $20 for the first bag and when I said that it says 2 bags are free for international flights, I was told the free 2 bags was only for international flights over a large body of water and not between Canada/US. Wtf is with this random inconsistent policy these days with airlines especially in the last year? Anyway, I went back into the line with that prick and after another 20 min wait in line, he let the lady infront of me had the 2 rollers through with a smile! Her 'laptop' back was twice the size of my backpack. I was furious and obviously questioned his dumb ass and his reply was "oh she only had a laptop in her laptop bag whereas you had clothes in yours". I only had a sweater i took off that i put in there which I coulda put back on or put in the roller. He then had nothing to say and turns and walks away. What a fuking douche, I told him he was an asshole and proceeded along to the loooong US customs line and luckily got a nice officer that understood what he was doing otherwise I woulda missed my flight to that bs. So if you plan on traveling this month, make sure you go extra early to deal with BS and lineups and also give yourself time to demand to talk to a manager on a powertripping loser. I hope that guy gets hit by a car when he went home, fucking douche.
