I recognize the flight attendant. Perhaps some time spent at the re-education camp in Fort Worth will do him some good. He obviously needs a refresher course on how to behave.
Are we positive this person was a flight attendant? Seems more probable that he was a gate agent. I wouldn't let the AA employee and the Alpha male passenger to share the same flight.
