I mean seriously? People, have a little since of common courtesy to your neighbors.
I was on a MSP/SFO flight earlier this year with an older gentleman FA - maybe somebody else will know of him. I was in row 1 with my feet with socks on the carpeted bulkhead. The FA told the guy on the other side of the aisle from me to take his feet off the wall - he had his shoes on - and said something like - Would you do this at home? I was prepared to be scolded, too, but my neighbor, who also had his stockinged feet on the wall and I weren't told about it, so I guess for him, socks = OK - - shoes = NOT OK!
On a side note, when I tell this story, I have typically called this FA the old mother hen FA. When he was serving the hot breakfast, he was offering people packets of jellies and sauces that he brought from home. Every time he gave somebody a diet soft drink, he warned them to be careful as diet drinks always foam up and not to pour the can too fast! Just to say that I'm not bashing this FA!! Just telling a story!
