How do you feel about spouse using the old phrase "Do you know who my husband/wife is?" to get special treatment.

LOL! That is an outstanding response! I would've loved to seen the expression on her face.

Sadly I have only had the opportunity and presence of mind to use it once, but, I assure you I found it funny and giggles ensured from many in the vicinity that understood what was going on.

The spouse was not nearly as entertained. ...and ya know, I never did find out who her husband was ...he never looked me up to ask why I did not allow his fully able bodied wife to park in the area reserved for handicapped and the family members of returning wounded warriors

I suppose the counter reaction should be, "yes I do and simply amazed on how disrespectful you are to his/her rank."

Had a spouse try to pull the "Do you know who my husband is" line on me while I was working the ER. I was working the front desk since we were short manned, and had quite a wait (with legit stuff). She came up all huffy that her child hadn't been brought back for the sore throat it had for the last 2 weeks... Her statement was "Look, you need to hurry this up. Do you know who my husband is... he is Sgt Snuffy (don't remember real name)"... I quietly laughed, and reminded her that in the ER, rank has no place, and that if she is going to pull her husbands rank, she needs to make sure it is higher than the person she is pulling it on.

The funniest thing was, when she told her husband about it... he actually came up to me and apologized on her behalf.
