Kate Linder on Her Double Life as a Flight Attendant for United Airlines

A bit of a 'feel good' story about United given the less than positive tone on many of the forum posts. I think it's fascinating that she has been able to work both careers for so long and can switch "roles" from a successful actress on Emmy winning shows, to a flight attendant.

Thinking back on the early days, she shares, "When I first started, I became a flight attendant because I needed a job that would give me enough time off so I could pursue my career. And then I was hired. I was only hired for one day, so I kept going. And then I thought, 'Well, if I can keep doing them both, well then I'll do them both.'"

Now, she credits her double life for keeping her humble.

"You can't forget who you are that way. I'm telling you, one day I get to be on set, I get to speak with you here at the Emmys, [and] then I'm serving coffee at 35,000 feet. I mean, you can't forget,” she says
