The flight attendants are supposedly there for our safety, but they are also the image of United to passengers. I'm sure this isn't an image that the airline would want to present.
I would not complain. It is a long flight and people, including the crew, get bored. Admittedly, their behavior was not consistent with what one would expect from a flight crew. However, would you rather be on a flight where the FAs are rude and cranky, which happens all too often?
