hmmm...i think we need to be fair to the 1st class pax...most are business men, and are working during the flight...i don't expect 1st class pax to talk much...they are busy, they are concentrating, they are occupied...most have type 'A' personalities...direct, to the point, desiring concise information concerning their service...they expect us to be as professional as they are...i don't have a problem with this at all...of course, flight attendants by nature are outgoing, talkative, extroverted, gregarious...we are 'people oriented people' or we wouldn't be flight attendants...i think it's possible that some flight attendants don't realize that they are dealing with a different personality type...</font>
Come on, Ishah, stop trying to kiss up
LOL
I've been at this for over 20 years and am not the most outgoing personality in the sky. I am very sensitive to the needs of my passengers and will do what I can to accomodate them. I don't think looking me in the face for a split second while giving a drink order is too much to ask. Or not blowing a gasket if I run out of beef before I get to them. It all boils down to common courtesy and it goes both ways. I choose to concentrate on the majority who are like these folks here who have manners and are not afraid to use them. What goes around, comes around!
