Bob Behrent, author of Planes, Pranks and Pepto Bismol considers himself a road warrior. A road warrior spends hour upon hour traveling from one city to another on business, faces airport delays, rental cars that don't run, incorrect directions and hotel rooms that are dirty, but yet they keep traveling.
Behrent spends a lot of time in airports. Apparently that’s where he came up with the idea for this book and where he wrote it. He doesn’t hesitate to name names of businesses that do not practice good customer service. Much of this book is written tongue in cheek yet there I also several good hints embedded in the text.
I found myself laughing at Behrent’s take on airport security. With obvious reasons he has an aversion to removing his shoes. He also refuses to remove his belt and prefers the body scan. He reminds readers that at one time he carried a Swiss army knife in his carryon luggage. He makes note that the no bomb signs have been removed from the airport.
Certain hotels have made Behrent’s black list. He kindly lists the hotels he prefers. He also suggests having a database of restaurants. The chapter on rental cars will bring a laugh to the reader. From a mix up of keys, to getting in the wrong car, Behrent has faced it all and survived.
Planes, Pranks and Pepto Bimol is a humorous look at travel.
