I am unsure what statement you are referring to, but if you mean the one about working as a flight attendant, I hesitated before putting it down. Read my first post and I did say that the F/A's could have handled the circumstances better. Having worked as one, I do know it can be a very difficult, underappreciated job.

BTW - I enjoy the podcasts..
