So I'm supposed to be on my way to Orlando, but Southwest asked for volunteers to take a later flight. You know how I roll -- collect as many travel vouchers as possible. So of course I volunteered us, and after waiting about an hour for the promised $200 the woman at the counter goes, "Well I can't figure it out. So I just gave you a voucher for the total amount of your roundtrip flight."
