101 Things a Ramper Should Know: and will never find written elsewhere (Unauthorized Handbooks)

A ramper is an airport agent in charge of loading, unloading, parking, towing, pushing, de-icing and servicing planes. Their job is physical, their schedule is terrible, they work outdoors in almost any conditions, and they get paid nuts. This is a short collection of aphorisms that forms some sort of an unauthorized handbook for rampers,. Francesco Dalla Vecchia who, from 2012 and 2018, worked as a ramper for three different airlines in six different airports, decided to share is "wisdom" the day he quit working at the airport. Through a series of witty lines, the author portrays an unconventional picture of a place that sometimes gets a bit crazy. The author's predicaments are clearly semi-serious and most of them... would not fly. In fact some of his suggestions may even contradict airlines' procedures and policies. Nevertheless, Dalla Vecchia provides encouragements and ideas on how to cope with the hard life of the airport. In addition to rampers, this book may catch the interest of readers who are involved in the airline industry or simply intrigued by a world that most passengers just barely skim.
