eventually the legacy carriers will have to rehire due to the condition of the aircraft. Delta is already taking action on their trashy airplanes.

I stand by my comments, I can't tell you how many times I've said "Hello" and smiled as I'm entering the cabin to clean or delivering the supplies they've requested and get a frosty look in return.I'm not leering at anyone, not making lewd comments, not pawing through the galley for a soda.Hell, I'm even in a complete and clean uniform.(Which is a rarity in itself these days)

Although when the smokers are looking for a place to fire one up its a different story.

I understand people having a bad day, but it seems a hell of a lot of our flight attendants are having "Bad Days".

The TWA FA's were a lot more civil, even knowing they were losing their jobs in the near future.

Thank you for the kind comment about the TWA f/a's, I am one of them. We always treated every employee with respect regardless of the position they held. When a cleaner or agent or mechanic were working on the aircraft most of us would offer them something to drink and in some cases something to eat. <leftover baked cookies>

A few years back we were landing in STL and continuing on to XYZ city. We were just about to land when I noticed my tote bag sitting on the galley counter. In my haste I put it in a empty cart. After deplaning the pax's I walked up the jet way to give the agent my liquor papers and briefly chatted with her. When I returned to the aircraft the galley had been completely switched out for the next leg and the cart that I left my bag in was el gonno. In my bag was my manual <a no go item for f/a's> my wallet and passport. One of our cleaners was on board and saw that I was in a panic and I told him what had happened. He immediately ran down to the ramp and hopped in a tug and went to the other side of the field to the Sky Chef's kitchens to look through many carts. Like finding a needle in a hay stack, but miracles do happen he found my bag in the first cart he opened. He raced back to my flight and handed it to me with a smile while I was on the phone with inflight explaining what happened. They were getting ready to replace me.

I could not thank him enough!!!!! He said "We have to look out for each other we are family."
