Uniform Pictures

[EMBFA]

Its so easy to wear a uniform, and any one with any sense of self would have tailored the thing to look good on them since its most likely what they appear in public in the most. I have to say it seems like PHL crews have stepped it up again, seen alot of sharp F/As lately... US F/As are a rebellious bunch and I think they are rebelling against our trailer park makeover by ironing, styling the hair, putting the tie back on.

That said you still see some people who just need help, uniform and fashion wise... Theres a really bizarre connection between US Airways F/As and the mid 80s... I NEVER see women with poodle perms, feathered hair, big bangs... men with mullets or even perms and Kenny Rogers beards... EXCEPT for at work. Whats up with that?

sky high states: <yawn>......another WEDGE placed by the "junior" EMBFA between the "senior" and junior ranks. I have to ask, did they hire YOU with that big attitude? or was it with that BIG ASS? (most of you junior twink's arent near any weight restriction we went through for several decades). HUH?

Oh its you again!

* One doesn't have to be of any age to have 80's hair.

* My ass is nowhere near large, trust me. Better luck next time... Its pretty difficult to insult someone you havent seen, huh? Maybe you should tell me I have a big nose or something. No, thats pretty lame too.

* You keep calling me a twink, which I've asked around and supposedly is something gay. If youre calling me a lesbian, ok, well Im not sure what to do with that. I dont consider that an insult, maybe you do, either way, whatever.

* Your infatuation with me is creepy but I guess flaterring, its fun to see that you post immediatly after I do. Sad that all you can come up with is calling a computer stranger fat, but maybe with practice you'll get in a good zinger! Keep trying. We're all rooting for ya.

* How on earth did you stay within strict weight limitations while fighting congress to take smoking off the airplanes and maintaining your fabulous career in the most coveted position in all of aviation- flight attendant for USAir? You are beyond impressive. Please share some fabulous stories of your glamorous travails around Western Pennsylvania and Ohio in the glory days!!!

sky high states: Infatuation?...nahhh, just correcting your arrogant attitude. Class of 1999. huh? I remember that year, werent YOU scrapped from the bottom of the UNEMPLOYMENT barrel and hired here? LOL!! I remember seeing you outside the supervisor's office. Trust me, the company LOWERED IT'S EXPECTATIONS with your "juniority". MOST OF US, laughed at what was showing up for interviews.
YOU came on the line with un-impressive work ethnics and think DOING A BEVERAGE SERVICE to the west coast is darn hard.
EVER SEE A GENIE TRAY? MINTS? HOT TOWELS? SUNSHINE SERVICE IN COACH? APPETIZERS? ICE CREAM SUNDAES? SALAD SERVICE????

........as you said, ohhhhh, its YOU again. the IGNORANT JUNIOR TWINKIE who continues to advocate----> ageism. Difficult to Insult you without seeing you?...nahhhh, your post SPEAKS VOLUMES!

ANYONE else sense this discrimination against more senior F/A's from her attitude????

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!! OMG!!! You ARE a cheesey USAir yinzer! You think genie trays and ice cream sandwiches are classy and high end service! OMG.... you poor thing... by the way all that stuff was still around until about 5 years ago. Did you seriously think the genie trays were a big deal? They were disgusting for one, but certainly not a challenge to serve on our piddly narrowbody fleet. You weren't exactly flying a B747 between PHL and PIT. And oh my god, you must not know that most airlines still have all of the above and have for years (not just for the brief decade US made an effort to be a major).

Everything else... oh yes, they really lowered the standards in 1997-2001 when they began actively seeking language speakers and experienced flight attendants for the first time as opposed to local gals and gay guys from the hills of Pittsburgh and ramper Joes daughter. Trust me, we laughed when we saw you too, especially those of us from other carriers (especially if you ever thought that genie trays were something to be proud of). Mints... wow.. call Singapore Airlines and Emirates, did they think of MINTS!!!! LOL!!!

For all of your harping on age you really have no clue how old I am, my work history, only my seniority at this particular airline (which, being the internet, could be a lie too, you never know... you seem to take it all very seriously). In fact, you have no idea about anything at all about me except that my humor bothers you. Its a web site about possibly the most amusing and quirky airline there is... its full of fun jokes... our workforce is a fun one to poke fun at, and most of us have a sense of humor... you obviously dont. Waaaah... use the ignore feature. Since this seems to be all you have, go with it my friend.... you've provided more entertainment than I could ever provide alone... tell us more about USAirs fine service with the doggie trays and such... you will fit in nicely with the new LCC model.

...class of 1999?.....YOU SAW NONE OF THIS SERVICE.

talk about cheesy?.....you just put down what made this airline's "inflight service" one of the BEST.

...but wait, you're MORE INTERESTED in talking about "hair"..."bangs"....and <rolling eyes>.."fashion."
...coming from a person who has...LOL...LOL.....Airhead Paris HILTON as an avatar!!!!....she represents YOU, perfectly!!!!! ROTFLMAOOOOOO

Omg you are so lame... we had hot towels until well into 2001 or so. We used to even do them in Economy on international (I was in the PHL ITD when we won an award for service... were you? You sound more like you were in CLT) Dumping hot water onto a towel and presenting it, not difficult. Salads, we still have them. Doggie trays were around until 2002 on the 757 and some midcons on the 737. Again, not difficult and embarrassing in comparison to competition at the time. Never saw "Sunshine service" but I have indeed served beverages and a full snack on a 1 hour flight... on a large widebody with minimum staff, not whatever 737 or DC9 variant you were rocking at the time. Being a flight attendant, (talking service wise here), is not difficult. I've also done corporate charter which is in a league FAR beyond what your doggie tray USAir regional mentality could EVER fathom.

But, if you feel you've, I dont know, "out-peanuted" me then good for you... lol.

And thank you for the Paris comment! Maybe you have seen me then, in which case I'd understand your jealous, confused ramblings. Oh, and youre old! And fat! Go cry now!

After reading a couple of post it's always hard to remember what the topic was in this forum.

They go down hill fast :down:

If you think being called an AIRHEAD is a compliment, then it fits YOU. This is a forum on USAirways, NOT your little minded comments on your LACK OF SENIORITY and mullets and your endless attacks on your CO-WORKERS. Perhaps you should try this website: http://www.perezhilton.com/

it's more your level. Bother way, I'm done with this topic. Done commenting to "your drivel", I've already made YOU look like the fool you are.

Guess You Were Not Around For The PHL-PIT HOTT Breakfast On The 35Min Flight!Now That Was A Blast!!

 

[EMBFA]

Perezhilton.com is awesome!

Yawn! The hot breakfast PHL to PIT is no different than what any other airline was doing at the time, again on bigger airplanes with more people, and if you saw the lavish services corporate and charter flight attendants pull off in short amounts of time its really not that impressive. On the ground, people do the same thing all the time. Pulling someone from a burning plane? Impressive. Throwing a meal in a short amount of time? Not fun, but can be done. Certainly not something to brag about, especially in front of people with much more challenging jobs. This is where flight attendants lose sympathy, when they complain or brag about providing service that is well below what waitstaff on the ground provide at a higher level for less compensation. Talk about your emergency training... acting like serving TV dinners to a cabin of seated people is something no one else can do makes the profession look bad.

I'm not sure what "Bother way" means... is it a slang or local butchering of "By the way"? For our purposes I'll assume so. No feeling like a fool here, "bother way". I've found this all quite entertaining, but youre an easy target (you feel you made a fool of ME? lol! Get a post fifth grade vocabulary and sense of humor and try again...)

SkyHigh, in all seriousness, you should seek help if you really feel attacked by an anonomous poster on a b*tch board on the internet. This board has been around for years and is the number one place to b*tch, moan, rave, make fun of, worry about, US Airways. Its not to be taken seriously. You can go to theHUB, the company provided news site for that. If you feel attacked by jokes about your workgroup (from another member of the same workgroup), maybe you should take your sensitive self somewhere else.

There are studies that some people get really involved in chat sites and message boards or cybersex to a point where they think its real. They start viewing other participants as real human interactions and allow thier emotions to be swayed by keystrokes. SkyHigh, anyone who would bother to send a complete stranger a private message at 4 in the morning calling me a c*nt probably needs help. Whatever "level" that is, its not mine.

Hey, what's wrong with mullets?

Billy Ray Cyrus - I Want My Mullet Back

Bell bottoms were really cool.
Cuttin' class an' skippin' school.
I 'member packin' that ol' fishin' pole.
Skinny-dippin' at a swimmin' hole.
Back light, red lights an' strobe lights too,
Were all the rage for me an' you.
Only one thing I miss more than that:
I want my mullet back.

I want my mullet back.
My ol' Camero, an' my eight-track.
Fuzzy dice hangin' loose an' proud.
ZZ Top, they're playin' loud.
A simple time, that's what I miss.
Your mini-skirt an' your sweet kiss.
Things are changin' man, an' that's a fact.
I want my mullet back.

Back. Back.
Back. Back.
Back. Back.

I want my mullet back.
My ol' Camero, an' my eight-track.
Fuzzy dice hangin' loose an' proud.
Lynrd Skynrd, they're playin' loud.
A simple time, that's what I miss.
Your mini-skirt an' your sweet kiss.
Things are changin' man, and that's a fact.
I want my mullet back.

I want my mullet back.
My ol' Camero, an' my eight-track.
Fuzzy dice hangin' loose an' proud.
Bob Seger singin' an' I'm out in the crowd.
A simple time, that's what I miss.
Your mini-skirt an' your sweet kiss.
Things are changin' man, and that's a fact.
I want my mullet back.

I want my mullet back.
I want my mullet back.
I want my mullet back.
I want my mullet back.
Ow!

Thats why this forum is such a joke with the other airlines.
Try to start an informative topic and it almost always goes down fast, off topic and
personel.
I would hope its more than a b*tch board.
