While flying from the northeast to south Florida last week it was bumpy at all altitudes and everyone was trying to find a better ride. I overheard this conversation with ATC.
United XYZ: Jax Center, were getting a rough ride here at 360. Do you have anything smoother?
Jax Center: Yes, I-95
United XYZ (after much laughter): “Can we have that?”
Jax Center: Sure, let me know when you see asphalt.
