Seriously, what's wrong with that? That was the traditional airline service model until the 1960s or 70s. Nobody expected an FA job to burgeon into a career you could support a family on -- it was a lark for a few years after you got out of school.
Not every job is a career, or should be. You can't buy a house on a pizza delivery guy's paycheck, no matter how many years you do it. I'm not equating FA jobs with pizza delivery. I'm just saying nobody has a right to a wage in excess of market forces.
One has to keep up with the times. At one point a FA could not be married. Had to be a nurse. And had to retire at 30. What other career puts that kind of restriction on a persons personal life. The lawsuits were filed in the '60's and won in the '70's. That's also the same time men could become FA's and women could become pursers.
The law of the land is that this is a land of opportunity. And no discrimination against sex, age, race, creed or sexual orientation.
