She said catering was late (it wasn’t -that- late… she could’ve easily served the entire 9 seat cabin in the 15-20 minutes we were waiting before pushback).

She did offer a full PDB eventually but became hostile to other passengers. When they requested anything besides water (which several did), she asked them whether it would be OK to delay the takeoff to get them their drinks. People seemed confused and told her no. Then the other male Fa came to the front and made an announcement about how his “lovely wife” would be serving us up front. Then he walked around to each passenger and asked who the person was who told her to delay the flight in order to serve drinks. Literally no one had told her to delay the flight. He was a real jerk, and he and the wife seemed to be quite the pair!
