Why isn't there much you can do about the FAs? By putting up with this you are just reinforcing their rudeness. In a sense, you are responsible. Just like if you allow someone to make a racist tirade, don't say anything, don't they think you are giving them your approval?
All I am saying is, I choose not to have a yelling match or argument with a flight attendant. You may not mind that but I would rather just accept that they are the ones in authority and I'll just listen to what they say for the next 2 hours of my life.
