The Airport Dude Abides
Either sleepy-eyed Christopher Gilliland here has the absolute baddest, most enviable title on his airline (why even open his eyes? He’s the Airport Dude) or the CBC is getting lazy with its captions.
To be fair, most of what gets typed into the lower third of a news report tends to be a peering-up-the-ladder intern’s job. So while this is obviously the result of an ill-conceived stand-in title being forgotten about while some keener runs off to grab the proper information (and not CBC’s attempt to inject hipster cred into their Living series), that doesn’t stop it from being hilarious.
But for Airport Dude’s sake, his actual title is Manager of Retail Sales and Services at the Vancouver International Airport.
