I've also seen it saved by her for a friend. If she ever does that when I want to sit there HQ will be finding out and will get a name.
She seems an odd exception to the generally high standard of easyJet cabin crews - she's generally very rude during the service as well. I get the impression she does not enjoy the job, whereas you usually get the impression that EZY cabin crews do enjoy the job.
