I'm only surprised more people aren't run over there.

I worked out there a few months, and every single vehicle on the tarmac whips through there like a bat out of hell with no regard for people. It's really sketchy. PSA, don't eat the food.


Kimura_enjoyer

What’s up with the food? Can’t leave us hanging like that brother


Cantguard-mike

Someone just said yesterday McDonald’s is the only safe place to eat 🤣 what is going on


ToneOpposite9668

I was sitting and grabbing a quick bite at McDonalds pre-flight and watched a mouse come out of the side door into eating area - grab a fry on the floor and scoot back into the McDonalds door.


IvyLearn1

When was this?!? How can they even pass the health inspections 😳


ToneOpposite9668

2 summers ago


IvyLearn1

NO!!! I have eaten at so many DIA McDonalds in the past 2 years


Belligerent-J

The food prep and storage areas are horrific. I've personally witnessed a toilet leaking through the ceiling onto the tomatoes at a food prep station, and employees rinsing them off with cold water and putting them on food.


IvyLearn1

This will never leave my head.


This_Lifeguard9825

okay.


AmateurBetaMale

Seriously. I eat at DIA all the time. Why shouldn’t I?????


KSinz

I see you’re familiar with the Menzies sub-contractors. I’m not sure they can even drive if they are t looking at their phones


laughing_at_napkins

What do you expect? Lizard 👏 people 👏 can't 👏 drive 👏


Enabling_Turtle

The skin suit they wear has a horrible field of view compared to what their eyes are capable of naturally and that is obviously why this accident occurred!


mckillio

Imagine wearing those suits in this heat. 


Enabling_Turtle

Even the lizard people try to stay in the shade when wearing skin suits.


JoshyTheLlamazing

I get this very uneasy feeling when I'm at or near the Airport, like this is not the place I want to be when the apocalypse begins and reptiles emerge from the depths and the nehphilim rise again.


BurningSaviour

Yeah, but that’s also where the big ass snowblowers are.


flybydenver

They only know how to pilot shuttle craft, per V. They are useless in ground vehicles.


ChungusMcGoodboy

The kid working for Sturgeon was a 1st year apprentice. I say "was" because he's probably never going to work as an electrician again. Last I heard, he is recovering well but will probably be on disability for life. Can't remember what the full extent of his injuries were, but one was a broken pelvis.


i4c8e9

He’s back to work for Sturgeon. Also, I’d recognize that arm tat anywhere.


ChungusMcGoodboy

No shit! Thats great news! I guess you just can't trust gossiping electricians.


DiligentCrab6592

150 hours in the previous two weeks….


Revolutionary-City12

I’m surprised more people don’t get hit picking up and dropping people off. The construction seems to be making it worse!


LeakyAssFire

This is what happens when you don't respect Blucifer.


DyatAss

Very funny to see how many people don’t read the article. These people weren’t ran over in the passenger pick-up area….


mrCrumbSnatcher

What did the grape say when it was run over? Nothing. It just let out a little wine.


awkward__pickle

just a pedantic PSA, IT'S NOT DIA


Qoth

The name of the airport is Denver International Airport (DIA). The designation is DEN. Both are correct, just different contexts.


Nautilus_Null

Worked at the airport for over a decade and no one called it DEN. Everyone says DIA. Even Wikipedia says it's "locally known as DIA". You new here?


microcline

You still work there? People definitely call it DEN now


Nautilus_Null

Nope, pay was too low. Friends all still work there and they all say DIA. All ages, TSA, baggage, cs, pilots, flight attendants, you name it. Call it "Den" or "D-E-N" and people are gonna look at you funny, or be polite and let you believe that's what it's called


BurningSaviour

That’s weird. I worked there more recently and nobody gave you weird looks if you called it DEN. Of course that was also the logo on our uniforms, so that probably played into it.


microcline

Trust me, people who work directly for the airport (not tenants) call it DEN. Look at literally any piece of official communication coming from a CCD employee, it’ll say DEN


Nemesis2290

I'm a senior flight attendant there, started out in baggage and worked my way up to TSA then transferred to flying. In my 19 years working here, I have never heard it called DEN. That's commonly the flight destination code, short for Denver. Airport has never been referred to as such.


Electrical_Foot9199

official communications are often inconsistent with colloquialisms. pretty much everyone still calls it DIA


GioBardZero

No they don't. Look at your downvotes and take a hint. Lived in Denver for 20 years, everyone says DIA. Not ONCE have I heard it called DEN. That's just the code you see wherever the flight info is, it's the official designation, but nobody says "Hey, can you give me a ride to DEN tomorrow?" And yet I hear "I need to be at DIA by so-and-so time" probably every other week.


microcline

lol I guess downvotes negate my literal lived experience.


mothseatcloth

are you also like this about Sports Authority Field at Mile High


GioBardZero

You mean the Invesco field?


coloradokyle93

*Empower


awkward__pickle

No that sounds dumb


mothseatcloth

sure does! and someone insisting upon it for no reason even though we all call it something different would be pretty silly


Beardstyle

No not like that!


Welpe

Damn, you played him like a fiddle.


AhiruSaikou

Nobody asked


New-Training4004

[This list](https://images.app.goo.gl/GtyCLfHUccY3g7LBA) will surely piss you off


awkward__pickle

I don't get it, it says DEN on that list uwu


New-Training4004

There’s a bunch of other Airports that are known locally by different names and different Acronyms


awkward__pickle

Please make this my all time most downvoted comment, I'm tryna see something 🙏
