I must admit, when I first started working after uni, I thought I was hot shit for flying domestically (Hamburg<>Munich). Even had my BlackBerry set to loud, so people know I don't belong to the tourist shmucks. God fucking damn it, I'm cringing so hard at the memories. At least I was away for the entire week and not just a single meeting.

Traveling via ICE is so, sooo much better! I do miss the BlackBerry though. The iPhone keyboard is complete garbage in comparison. I keep the phone silent nowadays. Man, what a cringelord I was back then.
