Having a cold/cough sucks. Especially when you know that in 72 hours I will be taking my first flight working as a flight attendant. This cough could ruin everything. I’ve been trying to get rid of it for almost a week now and still it plagues me. That’s the only good thing about these days…
Tag: Flight Attendant
Just remind yourself there are only 3 weeks left of training.
A week down and I’ll admit that me having compassion and patience for other people’s learning curves is a constant struggle. We have so many different types of people in our class. We all bring different experiences in jobs and in life, but somehow we came together to do this training for this air line….
Qualms of Money… Especially when trying to rent an apartment in NYC.
Today I submitted an application for an apartment that myself, a fellow flight attendant perspective and hopefully another will inhabit. However, we do not have the 3rd person yet, and my salary as a flight attendant is supposedly 3k a month, at best. This is cleverly written out on our employment letter. Ideally, that means…
Colds and the Snow from Miles Above
However many miles up in the air right now I wish I wasn’t feeling so crappy. I have had a cold for the last week and the pressure up here is making my head spin. It was finally feeling better today and then on this flight it has been the worst. As soon as we…
What if something was in my butt… oh wait? I’m delayed.
Sitting and waiting in Newark airport. I haven’t been on a plane in just over a year. I get to the airport and decide to check my bag. Not because I need to but more because I don’t want the hassle of brining it on the plane. Also, to be blunt it is a little large to…
Medical…they want me to pee in a cup
As I waited on the subway platform this morning I couldn’t help but wonder if I would get the chance to meet some of my fellow class that I would be training with. I had to remind myself to be the best version of myself. Although I know first hand, first impressions are important but…
Kitty Withdrawl
A short trip to visit my sister’s new baby, my niece. I was gone for 5 days and my cat, Thackery Binx, was left behind. He is a black cat much like the cat he is named after from the movie Hocus Pocus. This cat is my love. He is a social cat, and cuddles….
Goals In Life… be paid to travel
When I was little I wanted to travel. Well… really I wanted to be a monkey trainer but traveling was high on the list. I’m not sure why I wanted to travel. When riding in the car and in planes I loved looking out the window and watching the terrain go by. I loved the…
Time + Nothing to do = Anxiety
4:51am and I have been up for almost an hour. Thinking about all the things that could go wrong, all the things going wrong, all the weight of my world on my shoulders. I thought last night as I went to sleep just after midnight, finally, I was going to reset my sleep schedule because…
Lipstick, am I feminist or conformist?
Red, Brown, Pink, Rose, Purple. There are so many different colors I could choose to make my lips on my face stand out. The few I put above are simply the colors I tried to stick to when picking out my lipstick last night. In two months I will start flight attendant training and then…
2 Months Out
I am about 2 months out from training. Currently, I live in New York City and will be based out of JFK. I have been really enjoying reading others blogs and wanted to start writing my own. Not being the best writer made me hesitant in starting a blog but I write in a personal…
