This sounds like the standard UA PA announcement. However, I have pleasantly noticed that UA crews seem to have gotten the message that this attitude is annoying and have dropped the "flight attendants are here primarily for your safety" rap.
I don't think it is too much to ask for a generally pleasant atittude from flight crews. I understand that some passengers don't deserve it. I understand that everyone has a bad day or flight. I also don't expect "love" in the conventional sense. But a pleasant professional atittude within the realm of today's in flight evironment should be delivered by any airline's in flight crews. The one's that don't do this on a regular basis will find me looking for another airline.
