It’s always something someone’s buddy totally heard sometime a decade ago.

Next up: that “we don’t talk to the help” lady that flies on every airline

I would have told her "Amazon" and had her make a sightseeing announcement to the pax

The lifestyle can be a little shocking to some people. Just because you got your certificates does not mean you will like the job and all it entails.

We had a passenger who was short of breath, so FA calls up and asks what to do, we suggest O2. Calls up a second time just to make sure/get permission to use a mask, we said it isn’t necessary just go for it. Calls back a third time and asks where to plug it in. Calls up a fourth time to complain that she never got trained on how to use the Oxygen...

The kicker was she had the gall to write us up for being “mean to her”. We were professional, just slightly shocked, but explained everything. Deflection...
