Bolding mine.
I usually ask for a Diet Coke. A number of FAs say that they can serve that after takeoff. I say that I would really like one now and it's policy that they can give me one. Many do come back with one "reluctantly". One FA actually went to the captain to report me. He came to my seat and asked if I was going to be an issue on this flight. Unbelievable. Thought I was going to be history. I told him that I think his FA overreacted. Luckily, he believed me and that was it. Afterwards, my seatmate said that she regretted not telling him that I was polite and not aggressive.
