 Cool story bro. How is it possible you have not flown in 3.2 years?  I find this implausible. 

It’s been great. No conferences, client meetings, or F2F at the mothership. No wasting days of my life in airports cause the brakes on a baggage cart didn’t work and some guy got run over on the apron fucking up the departures and connections. I fucking hate airports. Especially all the people. Only thing that sucks is that I lost my airline status.

Pretty sure if we were on a flight delay due to spilled fucking Rice, I would have just gotten up and started cleaning it.   But would have probably made some smart ass comment in the process about shitty Southwest service and passengers required to be the custodial crew if a flight crew actually shows up on time and then gotten kicked off the plane myself.

[NeverMarryAStripper 21921]

If I had been on the rice plane, I would have just cleaned up the fucking rice and told the sky waitress "There I did your fucking job, can we leave now."

It's 2023, why the hell doesn't SW have hand vacs for shit like that.

I only fly about 5 times per year, but it seems like 80% of FAs are just miserable bitches.

Yuck…

A passenger on board American Airlines flight 292, which departed Saturday evening from New York JFK enroute for Delhi, was arrested on arrival in India Sunday night after getting into an argument with another passenger – and urinating on them.

According to American Airlines crew, the urinator was inebriated. The incident was reported to authorities prior to arrival and both passengers, including the unrinee (who has filed a formal complaint) were turned over to local police.

And it’s not their job to clean the plane, it never has been. There’s separate cleaning crew for that and it gets done once a night or as needed during the day. But as with just about any other job in the industry right now it’s not exactly being overwhelmed with people applying to do it. I have no idea what happened on that flight, clearly the FA was over the line, but I really doubt that the actual delay was related to the rice.  Despite her ridiculous PA, FAs don’t have that power and Captains wouldn’t care about the rice.  Apparently it was poorly communicated but it was almost certainly a delay for something other than that.

SWA can't keep their computer system from crashing every 4 months, maybe add dust busters to the fleet once they can keep the planes in the sky.

It is their job to be courteous and not be cunts. I didn’t read the rice story but not helping a pregnant lady clean up popcorn is bad business and I’d look to get her gone if I were in charge. 

[Celery Man 20996]

FA's don't even start getting paid until the cabin door closes. I mean, at some point fairly quickly you can't hold up a whole fucking plane even just for the logistical problems created for the airline but they aren't getting paid enough to do their actual job. This is a much lighter breakdown than the guy who fucking went out the emergency exit.

I can't believe nobody on the plane just cleaned it up.  I would have asked for a dustpan 5 minutes in.

My family has a place in Colorado. We drive up there. We drive to port A. We do weekend get aways in the hill country. We travel a lot for club soccer. We are planning for a Mediterranean trip this summer. Just haven’t had any compelling need to be in an airport with the animal nation.

Teachers don’t get paid enough. FAs do fine. Nobody is making anyone work at those jobs for a living. Given how salty a lot of them are, I’ll never feel sorry for FAs as a group.

Most planes have resident roaches.  Some have mice. 

'Rodent in galley' is in the Boeing Fault Reporting Manual. I guess mice hitch a ride on the galley carts from the catering trucks.

Agreed.  When one of them, or a whole crew, get confronted with some truly craptastic passenger, I feel bad and that's a shitty safety situation for everybody.  But otherwise, only time you worry more about a FA than a teacher is when the Flight Attendant starts complaining to you about how they have to use their own money to buy supplies for the plane you're on.

I'm not aware that anyone was worrying more about FAs than teachers or worrying about either of them in general. Just commenting on how I can see how someone being paid $25/hr for not even most of their working hours could become a crusty old bitch.

They probably make 1.5x on average more than teachers. Sorry for the comparison, and yes, we as passengers in general can make their lives miserable. But that doesn’t give you the right to be an air cunt and have me “understand” and continue to fork over money to your airline.  I’ll never understand why some flight attendants are this way, and I’ve seen it on every airline.  SWA has gotten appreciably worse in this regard and they used to be great.

Did you watch the video? You speak up in that situation and grab a dust pan and clean it, she’d say thank you for cleaning up your mess and then kick you off the plane for causing a disruption.

Lol. You’re gonna feed a 2 year old what he/she wants particularly in an enclosed metal tube at 30,000 feet. FA was a cunt. And I was the guy that’d either clean up big messes, or leave an extra $10 on top of tip when my kids were that age.  My at-the-time frequently pregnant wife would never have been permitted to clean those messes up. Not that I was planning on it but I won’t fly United. 

[Celery Man 20996]

Popcorn is a choking hazard for 2 year olds, plenty of other annoying little snacks they can throw on the ground.

I’m not going to critique a mother I don’t know. My youngest is 10. I can’t remember anymore. All I know is the kid didn’t choke and any other food would’ve also ended up on the ground. Yes the mom probably should pick it up and the pitcher husband looks like a crying bitch. But this was all caused by a bitchy FA who showed no grace to an obvious mother that is probably showing a third on the way. Totally needless. Let the popcorn sit there. It wasn’t a terrible mess.

[Celery Man 20996]

Ah interesting - I don’t think I’ve ever had popcorn served to me on a plane but apparently it is in one of United’s snack boxes. 2 year olds should still not have popcorn but that’s whatever. Its trashy to leave messes like that behind and not at least attempt to clean it up but I’m a bit more surprised that the FA made a big deal out of it if she served it to them.

Curious if there are actually more stories like this than usual and if FA’s are experiencing the same general uptick in shitty entitled people that other service industry people have dealt with in the aftermath of covid. Seems probable.

[YGIFS 19452]

I'm guessing it's just a case of human nature.  She had to deal with some cunt Carl or Karen earlier in the flight or on her first bird of the day.  And she bottled it up and took it out on this woman.  It ain't right, but I get it.  The only part where I take serious issue with the FA is if the woman is showing, have some fucking human decency and keep your shit tidy and take it out on the next person.  We are completely crumbling as a society but one of the last few decent things we do is give pregnant mom's some leeway.

It is fair to say none of us have enough info.  The kids may have been acting up the whole flight.  The FA might be a bitch.  The FA might have told the mom and kids to please not spill after the mess started, and mom ignored her and let the kids go feral. We do not know.   

What bothers me is the concept that people believe they can dirty up the cabin and let others take care of it.  I hauled a shit ton of scouts to numerous campouts and 11 summer camps all over the southeast.   I told them all that my suv was not their trash can, and if they disrespected that then I would make a point of making my vehicle the very last for pee stops or food breaks.   It took a few demonstrations to prove I meant it, but they all caught on.    Not being a pig in someone else’s ride is not a hard concept to master.   Many already knew that. The rest learned quickly.
