Just came off a WN flight and witnessed a pretty rude behavior by one of their flight attendants. A girl about 5 feet 2 inches was putting her bag in the overhead. A gentleman saw her and started to help her. A male flight attendant came up and scolded him. "If she is going to sit in the exit row seat, she needs to be able do it herself". And he just stood there and watched. The lady, visibly upset says screw it, and sat one row behind the exit row.
I'm aware of the physical requirements of sitting in an exit row, but did the FA had to be so rude about it? I didn't know that lifting a bag over your head was a physical requirement for sitting in an exit row.
