I would pay to see a memo go out telling all this junior flight attendants, the same ones that sign up for the non-rev privileges who galavant around during their time off posting selfies on tiktok about their luxurious flight experiences as though they are world travelers, that states "if a complaint is lodged on file with their flight stemming from poor or lazy service, their non-rev privileges are revoked". Lets see how hard they try then. As a single individual I can attest Ive gone on dates with a few of them over the last 3-4 years and every single one says the same thing, they are obsessed with the benefits and they took the job to travel more. Ive never met one that talks about the love of the job or providing good service. That may not be something often found (or more important being instilled) in the recent FA graduates.

Its the nature of the culture/company that hires. If its not being taught and instilled (and enforced), it wont be followed. And taking a job purely for the benefits, which I think is happening more and more, is going to be toxic for the customer.
