I'm shocked when I see a 76ER crew in JFK. Why in the world are these old ladies continuing to work?
Because it's not really working...

As long as there is a 16 year old in it, ops, I meant 18 years old.

Apparently some FA's are having the Red Dress made in sizes that fit them. The real Red Dress Qual'd FA's are upset about it.

When I worked there, I understood they "capped" the red dress size. But I heard that a few of the heavy girls bought two dresses and sewed them together to make a double-wide!

Now that's funny and sad at the same time. Do you think they will start hiring some young blood?

I remember that story...god bless that captain!!! I have no idea how these great-grandmas today make it through recurrent training. Don't they have to ride down the emer slide or something?
