I\u2019ve gotten a lot of great feedback on my \u201c10 Signs\u201d post. My recent article was 10 Signs That You Are Taking Too Many Vacation Days at Work<\/a>. In light of the recent American Airlines devaluations<\/a>, we all need to lighten up with some humor. In no particular order, here are 10 signs that you are an American Airlines Executive Platinum.<\/p>\n

1. You obsessively go on aa.com more than 10 times a day.<\/p>\n

2. You ask for an agent at the Executive Platinum Desk by name.<\/p>\n

3. You constantly check the number of Systemwide Upgrades you have left in your account.<\/p>\n

4. You have more than 10 electronic 500-mile upgrade stickers from your Platinum days in your account and it\u2019s driving you nuts.<\/p>\n

5. You know the Executive Platinum Desk number by heart.<\/p>\n

6. Battleground upgrades are your worst nightmare. Not being able to clear that upgrade on the A321T is the bane of your existence.<\/p>\n

7. You hand over your Executive Platinum elite card in the main cabin when the flight attendant asks for snack & drink payment.<\/p>\n

8. You get antsy when your name isn\u2019t #1 on the upgrade standby upgrade list on the AA mobile app.<\/p>\n

9. The new boarding procedures are driving you nuts. You hate not being able to board with First Class anymore when you\u2019re sitting in the main cabin.<\/p>\n

10. You know that clicking the \u201cSame-Day Flight Change\u201d button on your online reservation never works.<\/p>\n
