Nope just whining and *****ing on APC about it. Still haven't heard what we got for tossing the contract in the toilet for a couple of days in June.

Not screening ANYONE that doesn't already control the aircraft is a security risk. This should be plainly obvious to the most casual observer. Couple the control issue with ZERO barrier to entry and you have a recipe for disaster. I'm not saying other FA's should have it, but ours shouldn't. You said it's a good thing ours are getting it, I said something like another win for aviation security.

Just a question about one of our pilots. So I was deadheading on one of our flights, we all boarded (full flight), sat at the Emerg exit, but the front crew wasn't there, eventually they made it in, did their stuff, door closed, CA came out, grabbed the Phone and started his PA, lots of info, keep in mind it was hot, pushing close to 20 min late, etc. What caught EVERYONE by surprise was his explanation on how to close the foward lavatory door, " -DONT SLAM THE DOOR, IT BOTHERS ME WHEN IM RELAXING-" then proceeded to the lavatory door and showed everyone what he meant, "slam the door, closed it softly, slam, soft, slam, soft".....after that, some other weird remarks... Drops the phone (my add) and walks away with 145 open mouths.
Has anyone experienced this?
To his credit, the one thing that bothers everyone, generalizing here, is the AM visit to the lavatory after the coffee and the banana that people do.

Why are FOs not telling this guy to stop messing with pax. Hopefully he gets ripped on relentlessly every time he sits down after one of those tirades. I know I'd be happy to let him know how I felt about it. What a knob!

I hear there's a guy wearing a baseball hat in uniform everywhere he goes. You can bet I'd say something to him. The professional standards committee told me that they are not uniform police, but I really think they should be. I've seen some pretty pathetic looking pilots in my 4 years here...

You mean the DTW captain who was on medical for 7-8 years and came back about a year ago? He's just an a$$. Talking to him is useless. He's better than you. Saw him in MYR a few months ago strolling past subway with it on.

Sometimes taking a picture and emailing it to management may be the only solution. Just sayin...

No...... You need to tell him. It's bad enough the zoo our customers have to put up with, only to be scolded when they've finally found their seats. It would not inspire much confidence in me to know the guy in charge of my life were such a fruit loop! How embarrassing to the rest of us! How these guys get through is a mystery.

Well when I flew with him it was more like a light hearted comedy routine. Most of the time people laughed and seemed to enjoy it. I just thought it was cheesy
