Give me a break homophobe! Yeah....all the gay guys drive medical expenses up. That's ridiculous! Try all the ridiculous lawsuits with ungodly high amounts of money paid out for bull$hit drive insurance expenses up.

You don't see this side of the biz haulin' freight apparently.

90% of our male FAs are gay. Most are great guys, has nothing to do with it. Between them and their 'domestic partners', insurance claims have drastically increased in that arena. Not just AIDS, but many other problems perhaps you aren't aware of.

Facts bear this out -- do a little research vs shooting from the hip like the media and Hollywood have taught you.

Y'all need help. This is almost as bad as the pregnant pilots thread. Do y'all have nothing better to do than sit around and bash people all day?
I'm here to tell you that their job is a LOT harder than ours. If you think you could do that job for one day without getting fired, then step up to the challenge.

Try being nice to jerk million milers at 5:30 am after they scream at you that the flight is late, the coffee sucks, their connection is all screwed up, and NO THEY WILL NOT put their bag up.
Think a 5 legger is bad, try doing it on your feet all day.
Try enjoying your job when your supervisor (who's 15 years younger and 10 years junior to you) treats you like a stupid 18 year old that can't be trusted to run a lemonade stand, yet you've reached your middle years, raised a family and lived more of life than any of them.
Try being told that you're replaceable and that if they find one bad page in your manual, you're fired.
Not to mention being looked down on by hot shot 25 year old pilots all day.

Yes, I think y'all need to grow up and not bash someone for the job they chose until you've walked in their shoes... which is also something none of y'all could do all day.



Don't denigrate your job because unskilled labor decides to apply for a FA job. Ditch digger, trashman, McDonald's, retail clerk, etc, many entry level jobs use unskilled labor. They are tough jobs too. Workers get abused by the public, underpaid, overworked....same problems FAs face. They choose the job. You feel sorry for all the folks in those jobs too? Willing to give up pay and benefits of your job to keep them happy?

Most of our FAs are great folks. But, they seldom link their performance with the success of the co.

We have no 'hot shot 25 yr old pilots', and haven't for years. If you abuse fellow workers, then you are an idiot anyway.

Wait a minute..there is one in my bed too! dang, he is cute.....

Holy crap!!!! Could it be? Could it be that there is actually more than one hot pilot out there?

Either that or I need to call my man right now......BUSTED!
 
On a related note, exactly how did it come to be that Flight Attendants wear wings??
A professional pilot EARNS a set of wings after years of training. The FA's are GIVEN them after a few weeks?

Now if they want to wear a little drink cart or escape slide on their sweater I am ok with that.

Flame away (some of them literally).
 
Nut Huggers.........oddly enough it works for most...both male and female!!
