Milk or Powder?

This is turning into "The Galley Show", thread deux.

Sorry.... :wacko:

 

[USCREW]

I can't work on my lines; I only have 11 years so why would I have a line?

I will let you borrow my clipboard and three hi-lighters so you can practice. And then you can drop words casually to sound really senior like, SAP, SWAP, ETB, ISD, Drop to 40 etc...

OK. how's this:

Ugh. I am so irritated with my SAP results. Even with the drop to 40 option on the ETB, I still have to swap into a Valentine's Day trip in order to maintain my SAP obligation! (I have many dates lined up, you know... :wub🙂 I am so angry, I have to focus, or there may be an ISD when we get to the gate in Munich. ( )

1D/F want more coffee. Forget it. It's after 10. :bleh:

How did I do? B)

hmmmm...ok then, do one of these apply?

* studying for the real estate exam?

* talking about your husband running around on you?

* going through a very very very messy divorce?

hmmm...you're too young to have pictures of cats....let's see...

* shuffle the cash cow cards? no, that usually is done while the passengers are boarding...let's see....

* read your trip schedule from that itty bitty piece of paper for like the 20th time?

Oh, I know....

* rearrange your rollerboard by taking everything out and putting it on the floor in and around the galley.

How about...

I wish the senior mamas would learn how to sap so trips would trickle down, and I wish the junior lazy puke would pick up some ETB instead of just claiming minimum!

hmmmm...ok then, do one of these apply?

* studying for the real estate exam? yes

* talking about your husband running around on you? yes

* going through a very very very messy divorce? yes

hmmm...you're too young to have pictures of cats....let's see... pictures of my mom, silly!

* shuffle the cash cow cards? no, that usually is done while the passengers are boarding...let's see.... can't do that on the jumpseat, they fly everywhere.

* read your trip schedule from that itty bitty piece of paper for like the 20th time? gotta find out where I can eat next!! BBQ in CLT? Pasta in PHL? Chinese in PIT?

Oh, I know....

* rearrange your rollerboard by taking everything out and putting it on the floor in and around the galley. If I left my curling iron in that :censored: hotel again....

Let's settle this issue once and for all!!! This will save Tempe $Thousands on focus groups and spread sheets!

how about everyone getting this passionate about your hourly pay, 100%sick/70%pay, vacation, 50 pay no credit deadhead, LTO....I can't help but think that management is laughing all the way to the bank at the flight attendants. We ARE IN CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS, and our work group is more concerned about powerdered creamer than they are their new contract. Don't forget, the contract rules your life! Powdered creamer does not effect how much money you earn, how hard you work for it, etc. Please, flight attendants, get involved in this negotiation process! Ask the union why there is NOT a reserve flight attendant on the negotiating committee?

I'm a young thing but here's a picture of Boots...

oh, my goodness, he is adorable...do you have a picture of Puss too?

I do get passionate about the contract, read just about every one of my other posts. Doesn't me we cannot joke around, it's too cold to go outside and play, so why not harrass the US1's off the plane for awhile? Stop snorting the powdered creamer, this isn't the 70's anymore.......

Go TG!!

Oh, goodness.. another reason not to mix Pussycats and tequila.... Poor Boots..... 😱

Puss has had one too many shortbreads...

But of course you work on your lines first before reading the magazine...Those FC pax are so needy...always about them...one secret is to dump a couple bags of potato chips into a styrofoam cup and eat out of the cup instead of the bag--that way, the pax sometimes think it's your own food and they won't get up and ask for the snack basket...or, this is a good one, when they ask you for a snack, you look at them really disgusted, exhale loudly, and say, uh, i'm planning to come around with it shortly and then close your magazine and stand up...that usually makes them feel crappy and sulk back to their seat.

Tell them they can have your snacks when you are done digesting them. That will shut them up. B)

Hey, that powdered creamer is dangerous!

Family, Afrooz. “Non Dairy Creamer Free Radicals.â€￾ November 14, 2005 Mad Physics.

Dairy-creamer, like any powder has a huge surface area. In fact, if you took a spoonful of powder, it might have a surface area comparable to the floor plan of your house! This is thanks to the fact that the particles involved are so small, so the net surface area is huge. If you have a great surface area, more free radicals can be formed and, since free radicals determine the rate of the combustion, you will have a high rate, and thus an explosion will occur. It works very well if the dust itself is flammable; however, with this example, you will notice that non-dairy creamer itself will not burn sitting in a pile. One must scatter it in air for the sides of the particles (and the free radicals) to be exposed to air.

So in conclusion:

Non-dairy creamer: not flammable on its own, but is flammable when evenly spread in air.

Don’t believe us? Well here are some videos of our fire. This is very dangerous (look at Martijn jumping out of the fire in the first video!); so as usual don’t try it. We did this off of Joost’s balcony and therefore the fireball is ~20 feet tall; however, it would have been very easy to make the fireball bigger. This was impressive enough, and this was we didn’t waste too much powder.

OOOOOH Thanks for the tips! I always try to ignore FC politely, but sometimes it's easier said than done! Sometimes, you have to put your foot down.

I can't work on my lines; I only have 11 years so why would I have a line?

Well with the new configuration, just nudge my knee with yours and I'll give you service. 😱

Where are those paper towels, or did they get rid of those too?
