HE SAID WHAT THE WHOLE COUNTRY IS IN THE MOOD TO SAY



Cursing a passenger who hits him in the head with luggage and then sliding down the emergency exit chute with a beer is hilarious. But I actually feel for these flight attendants who've been working since before 9/11. Imagine how their job changed overnight. At one point they were being trained to use guns. Flight atte...ndants are normally people persons in a service industry. But all of these new rules about cell phones being turned off, limited overhead space because passengers want to carry more on and pay less for checked baggage have made everyone on board irritable. So I can't blame the guy. And I really pity the normally straight pilots who are now forced to wave goodbye to everyone as they exist like Julie from the Love Boat.
