Flight attendant/World Traveler

We’re not just here to pour your soda

I work for Delta as a flight attendant and everyone thinks of us as a waitress or waiter, but guess what we aren't! Our first priority is to keep you safe. We actually take classes and learning self-defense, how to take care of violent passengers (should it happen), how to handle an emergency, and even how to do CPR. I sometimes think being a flight attendant is harder than being a police officer. At the end of the day Delta or ANY airline has to hire people who can handle it. NOT everyone can.

It can't be easy dealing with people at that altitude especially after a few drinks I'm sure not all are hard to deal with but it just takes a few to ruin your day

Not an easy job. Now a risky one too. Flight attendants have greater cancer rates due to ionizing radiation at 30000 feet.

Is it true you have to be skinny? Just wondering. I heard rumors and gossip and you have put an end to most of it and I thank you for that. I truly hate gossip and the mouthes of gossipers.
