What's new

Variable Staffing

I love when I'm asked "So whats the meal today"? "I'll have the filet". I could just vomit on them. I make a big deal out of it and say to the other f/a..."Ahhhh haaaa haaaaa haaaa did you hear what that guy just said? That is soooo funny. Gagging! ! :lol:
 
It's obvious by now that the "New" USAirways isn't in this game for Customer Satisfaction! There in the game to make a buck however cheaply they can do it.

The other favorite of mine has got to be standing up front during boarding and people coming on saying..."Did you get any sleep last night"....gimme a break! "No, just got in from the bar at the Days Inn at the end of the runway about 10 minutes ago.....BDL is such a party town!" :lol:

"Is it going to be a good flight?"

I don't know, I left my crystal ball in my rollaboard... should I go get it?

"So, is this your regular route?"

Yeah, all I do is fly back and forth between Philadelphia and Buffalo NY. Don't you see the slashes on my wrists?

"Nice flight Captain!" as they walk right past you. Um, hello, the captain caught up with three days worth of USA Todays. Who do you think made you the four cups of coffee, deodorized the lav after you blew it up, played with your child in the galley while you slept, and found an overhead space for your bag so it wouldn't get checked into the Philly baggage abyss?

Wheres the Galley Show lol.. bring it back!
 
Ok couldn't resist this one as long as we are off topic...."Hey Stewardess, how long is the flight to Buffalo....."I don't know we've never made it there!"...that was from the twisted mind of Phyllis Diller! LOL :lol:
 
I had a US1 ask me today where his omelet was.
I told him it was with my pension...
:lol: :lol: Now I like that! I remember I flew with this girl right after 9/11, right around when we got rid of all the pillows and blankets and she had just found out that she was going to get furloughed, so this fat hog walks on and starts ragging on and on about how lazy we were because we don't have any pillows and blankets and before I can open my mouth she says to him "well we got rid of ALL the blankets to save money and I still lost my job" He shut up and went on.

What's even funnier is when they ask "Is this your regular "run"? Who the hell calls it a "run"? Or even better-I was watching a movie where one F/A asked another F/A if she would take her NY "shift"! Are you kidding me? A "shift"-now that's rich!
"Is your shift over when the plane lands?" haha

It's not near impossible, we're just not used to it anymore. East used to do hot breakfast and dinner on flights that short.

I'll never forget my very first flight as a reserve: An oversold L-1011 LGA-PBI with a hot meal in both cabins. I think we had over 50 special meals. We were all reserves and clueless. We were literally throwing the meals out and then picking them up and stowing the carts in the lower galley as the gear was down. I seriously almost quit that day.

On my first hot breakfast, 35 minute PIT-PHL on the DC-9, we had to ask the pax to place their meals under their seats for landing. The cleaners and caterers loved us!

It's great when a pax asks you, "So how long will you get to stay in Paris"? "Oh, we're here for 28 hours". "That's all"?!!!
I don't know if pax think that maybe we get a full week or something. That would be tough when you're scheduled to fly five of these a month.
