I made the mistake of trying to help her with her boyfriend problems, you know listening and all that stuff.

Did your wife really buy this BS?

501, you have no imput on the matter. You did not help the poster in any way. I'm adding my opinion because I'm not involved whatsoever, yes your pobably kidding, ok! no problem. However the poster has a serious problem, feels as if his life is being intruded upon. These are the questions one needs to think about, "how to conduct yourself in a professional business like manner?" The person who posted needs to sit down with the person and have a candid talk, period. And keep it between them and not the whole world.

I'm sure both adults can come to a good conclusion and all 3 people, both the pilots and f/a can work it out, otherwise ask DEAR ABBY. By the way, I'm engaged and very much in love with an old fart! I have worked with many married pilots, both female and male and all relations have been totally professional. And working with them has been great. But I do have BOTH male and female friends, and it is strictly that. So believe me, I'm not involved.

Take care everyone, and I do hope you solve your problem, just have a talk with this person, and I'm sure everyone will understand.





Blah, blah, blah. OK everyone, one great big group hug. :puke: Be a part of the answer, not part of the problem.
 
That mobie. What a guy! Mobie, give yourself a huge pat on the back. I want to be like you when I grow up! :D :p TC
 
Tell her you want to leave your wife for her. Then, tell her you've decided that aviation is the root of all the problems in your first marriage, so, in order to make this marriage work, you'll quit aviation and become a school bus driver. Just make sure she'll be willing to support you after wife #1 takes everything and you'll be making 30k a year.

If that doesn't stop her from calling, I don't know what will.

Now that's a brilliant suggestion that only a woman could come up with. Probably the best advice given so far.

Remember, it's always best to think like the enemy... :D

Tell her that you and you wife want a threesome with her, if that doesn't scare her away, enjoy!

Actually, you might want to refer to the Seinfeld episode titled, "The Roomate Switch" ... Either way it turns out you're going to have an interesting time.

A fantastic solution just came to me by way of none other than the great "Mobie" himself...

Tell her she has to wipe the struts after you land... That'll take care of your problems...


:D ;)
 
Ok, forget the threesome (that only happens in movies anyway). Confide in her that you have contracted a nasty STD from your boyfriend (on the side), ok go ahead and tell her that the CP is your boyfriend. Ask her what you should do?

The next time you have a big Cold Sore try Sleepy's suggestion... :eek:
 
I could ask her to that gay cowboy movie and tell her I need to confide in someone now.. I need to come out of the closet.... of course then she'll probably think she can convert me... or take that as the green light to call anytime... what is it with chicks and gay guys? Seriously though cant a guy just be nice to a member of the opposite sex and not have it read into? The professionalism on duty isn't the problem it's when we shut off at the end of the day.. you know dinners and stuff like that, god forbid we break down or linger in one city for more than a day.
 
Avoid all flight attendants, they are pyscho! That is why I'm single, I helped one move. She started calling the ex and that us the rest of the story.
 
I'm not at all implying that you are having an affair, but I thought I'd share this story about psycho FAs.

This captain at an airline I used to work for was having an affair with a FA. I guess he was promising her that he would divorce his wife, but never did. So one morning after an overnight, the F/O and 3 FAs showed up to catch the van to the airport. The captain was missing but the FA he was "seeing" told the other crewmembers that he was running a tad behind and that he would meet them at the terminal. He never showed, so the F/O starting calling his cell and room. There was no answer and it was now 20 minutes before departure. Crew scheduling was called by the station to try to help find him. Needless to say, the flight was delayed until they could determine his whereabouts. They sent the station manager over to the hotel and asked security to go up and see his room. When they opened the door, they found the captain handcuffed to the bedpost, buck naked, and gagged! I guess she got her sick revenge.
 
Or even better yet. At least you have a "girl" problem. Try being hit on be a 6 foot female pilot who used to be a guy!
 
Just admit it, you must have laid pipe in this situation and done one heck of a job for her to be following you around like that.
 
Defuse the situation

Does she know your wife? Have her come over to the house and meet her. That will have 2 possible outcomes:

1) The wife will understand what you are up against, decide it's harmless and not be worried about it.

2) The wife will smell trouble and take care of the situation herself by explaining things to Miss FA.

If that doesn't work, call Mobie. ;)
 
I knew this was going to be a good thread

That was good, but seriously as a former Chief Pilot that has dealt with this situation from a management perspective.

The sooner I knew about a problem the better I could diffuse it later. I would tell your Chief Pilot about the situation and come up with a plan. My plan would be that once the CP knew, I would prefer to handle it on my own with his/her concurrence. I would then tell her that enough was enough and to leave you alone on your off time. If she reacts negatively then at least the CP would know where it is coming from.

Truth is almost always the best policy especially early in the situation.

Just my .02
 
As a world EXPERT on F/As let me first tell you that flakes are not by any means limited to the Corporate world. In fact, I think airlines have a much higher percentage of flake F/As than the Corporate world (where I am now they seem a lot more normal than those at the Regionals were).

That being said...................

Seeing as how I have been run around the block by a few F/As in my day (LOL) I would say the best way to get rid of one is to have your wife call her on the phone. Have your wife tell the chick you have some gawd-forsaken STD and should be avoided at all costs. She'll stop calling you in no time flat! Works for me!!! LOL

In all seriousness though...

You will probably wind up being dragged into the CP's office for sexual harassment so watch out. I would flat out tell the woman in no uncertain terms (with tact) that she cannot continue to hound you. Tell her it is having a negative effect on your personal life at home. Let her know you think she is a nice person and yadda yadda yadda, but the calls at home are over the top and have to cease.. .
