mini complaint here.
you know, flight attendants aren't always pleasant either, even considering they are human too, and the tons of crap I'm sure they have to put up with.
On a late night flight, a attendant was making the last round getting drinking classes and cracker wrappers, etc.
She asked me if I had anything, and I said, "oh yeah, here, and started to steer a paper napkin to the empty glass she had in her hand.
She drew her hand back and said, and I quote..."Is there any snot in that napkin?"
uh.....noooo......
Obviously I wouldn't want a handle of boogers either, but (a) she was collecting garbage, where was her bag. (b) I can't help but think there might have been a better way to say that, while working....like...."let me get a bag you can put that in."
BTW, In college I worked as some rich ladies personal assistant...she threw a party once, and her 8,000 year old mother was there. Between serving canapes...I was picking up empty plates/glasses.
Mrs. Methusala started handing me her near empty gin glass, from which she was getting sloshed. Then she said, "oh, wait a minute" while my hand was held out to get her glass. She took her napkin....blew her nose with a big HOOOOONNNNNNK...then put the napkin in my hand, deciding to hold on to her glass for a while longer.
eeewwwyyy gooooey.
