Instead of suing the company or making a fuss with HR, she just simply did not offer alcohol to passengers. If requested, she would say "it wasn't available on this flight". Not sure how she survived the line checks, but when I left that airline, she was still flying.
Interesting....so I guess no pax complained through email. She's lucky since on FA applications there is a question asking if you are ok with serving alcohol. I'm sure if you answer no the application is bounced. You're also asked during training if you are willing to serve alcohol.

I'm glad the Xjet FAs coworkers stopped enabling her by doing one of her REQUIRED duties. This whole case is a bunch if bs. Even if she gets her job back, she'll be a pariah...and rightfully so!
