I don't get it! I always thought the flight attendants were just trying to do their jobs! But I have seen people recline their seat, as soon as the FA leaves after asking them to put it up. It would be hard not to punch people like that in the nose!
People still see flight attendants as waitresses in the sky(or waiters). There for safety folks. Maybe now that the airlines are charging for every little thing, people will begin to see why flight attendants are there.
I have more stories people. Yep, even a couple that joined the mile high club! lol

I always had thought that the seat belt usage demonstration was a waste, but I sat next to a guy once who was trying to connect 2 female belt ends together.
I like to watch the mob reaction of passengers. When they make the first call to board the plane, most of them cant wait to get on board. And when the plane stops at the gate and they turn off the seat belt sign, it seems like most are in a hurry to get off. And if they do get off quickly, they still have to wait at the baggage claim area. I refer to these people as the "hurry up and wait crowd".
Remember, your seat cushion can be used as a flotation device.
People for some reason don't understand that 12 does not come between 20-27! Wait your turn people. Agents need to get a little tougher.
There has never been a successful water ditching other than in the Hudson. I don't consider that a true ditching since they were so close to land and I don't think they even undid the slides for rafts. A ditching, you are in the ocean! Oh and not that I would wish that on anyone.
Also please do not fly with a cold. You can ruin your hearing as I have done. Can't get that back . I am not bad enough yet for hearing aids...lucky me.

My friend and I were flying across the gulf of Alaska once and questioned the flight attendant as to the use of the seat cushion. She agreed that the seat cushion would only be held on for maybe 10 minutes before the passenger would go unconcious from the 40 degree water.
I think George Carlin had a bit about the seat cushion and beer farts - he was so funny when it came to the english language...

And when the plane finally lands, they announce they will begin to deplane. What's up with that? It sounds like they are removing the plane instead of asking you to leave the plane.
