I work for UAL and I aint buying the F/A slant.....
But I was not on the Flight!
I do know this:
1. We have BIG EGO Captains
2. We have BIG EGO Flight Attendants
I also have witnessed the F/A's blowing us off on 10+ hour flights, the fact is they are LAZY, OLD, and could care less about the Flight Deck Crew. I had one recently tell me she was waiting for UAL to give her a "buyout" of at least ONE MILLION DOLLARS! YGTBSM!
I cringe in paces like Brasil where we walk in the Terminal and the TAM girls look at our "girls" and laugh!
I would place my bet on the Captain on this one, ALSO I have heard nothing about the "Bunkies" throwing him under the bus....utter BS if you ask me.
Seems to me this Captain HAS A PAIR and made a STATEMENT
