People get mistaken for airport workers for a few reasons:

Similar attire: Some civilian clothing can resemble certain airport worker uniforms. For example, a blue collared shirt and khaki pants might be worn by both a passenger and a ramp agent.

Carrying luggage or equipment: Luggage handlers and other airport staff often carry rolling suitcases or specialized equipment. A passenger with a lot of luggage or an unusual travel bag might be mistaken for someone working there.

Looking busy or purposeful: People who appear to know where they're going and move with a sense of urgency at the airport could be misread as staff, especially if they're consulting schedules or maps.

Unfamiliarity with airport roles: Not everyone is familiar with the different jobs at an airport. They might assume anyone who looks official is an employee.
