It’s been a while since I’ve written. I was taking a break. Speaking of breaks. Working on an aircraft is one of the few jobs where you get a chance to sleep while being paid. It’s a luxury I greatly appreciate. On any flight we get somewhere between 1-4 hours break depending on the duration…

This last week I had a job interview and it went really well. So well, it was possible I might not be flying anymore. Instead it wasn’t the right fit and I was left slightly disappointed. I still love flying and will continue to do what I’m doing but I would be lying if I…

Being around people has always elicited very clear feelings for me. They either frustrate, elate, confuse, baffle, entertain, or anger me. Yes I left out some and probably very good descriptive words above. I just came off a trip where I was definitely angered, frustrated and even at times elated. However tonight I witnessed a…

Our company repeatedly has told us not to post complaints on social media. I agree. However, no matter how many times they tell us not to post on social media about annoyances with into the company, people do it. My stance on it is that if you have grievances with individuals take it up with…

Biting my nails was a bad habit I have had since I was young. People would see my nails and ask how I could bite them so short.  Since having this job, I stopped biting them cause I knew if I kept it up they were going to make me sick. So many germs on…

We all have identical items we wear to work, so what sets mine apart from others are my initials that I wrote in strategic places. I spent good money making sure that uniform fits me well. I sure as hell am going to make sure I go home with it at the end of the…

I am a woman with a body that is curvy and my uniform fits me well, which requires undergarments. Let’s start at the top. I have breasts. They are quite large and always have been. I at times don’t wear an underwire but this results in a lot of sweat in places that aren’t comfortable…

I just finished a week long trip and it was the first time I flew with a senior or cabin Cheif whom the crew collectively disliked. I had flown with this person once before and when I did I liked him but he didn’t have any power on that trip. This trip started out like…

About two weeks ago I broke my luggage that I use to travel. At first I was angry and then slightly joyful cause it might mean me getting a better bag. Now I have been told I will simply have to replace the handle that broke which has left me angry and annoyed. This luggage…

Traveling can present some challenges. For one I hardly ever know what day it is, especially cause I usually leave on a Sunday and they all blur together.  The other day I got into London and someone said there had been a terror attack on a train. I thought they meant 7.7 but no, someone…

16 years ago I remember the day. There aren’t many who were older than grade school that can’t tell you where they were and what happened though out the day.  As I make my way to the airport I can’t help but think about the events and the fact that 16 years ago this flight…

This city gives everyone who lives in it the chance to have everything. In the musical RENT, there is a line in a song called Sante Fe, it goes “it’s a comfort to know that anywhere else you could possibly go after New York would be, a pleasure cruise.” After living here for 6 years…
