I meant what you said. The the other part of my post was to squelch the argument that ALWAYS comes up whenever a pilot is allowed to occupy a Flight Attendant JS.

Somebody (usually an FA) will always use the argument that a pilot is not "trained" to occupy that seat or operate the doors of that SPECIFIC aircraft, even though a pilot can occupy the JS on an aircraft he's not trained to operate. Therefore, a pilot shouldn't be allowed to occupy an FA JS since an FA can't occupy a cockpit JS.

And no, I'm not trying to start a pilot vs. fa thread or what a specific employee should or should not be allowed to do.
