for the record, I'm under 35.
Acceptable ...disregarded ... I am not and have no intention of being judge & jury over the OP or the situation but most of the others posters on this thread have put themselves into that position. My issue is totally with those responses that indicate the
FAs actions are acceptable solely because one and there was ONLY ONE per the OP, curse word escaped the OPs mouth. Let's not forget per the OP, that one curse was also not directed at the FA, but the situation.
We don't and likely will never know the full story, but the people posting on this thread are saying that
the FA's actions are fully acceptable because *gasp* someone cursed in the FAs presence. Get a life folks, open your ears ... without substantially more to this story - e.g. was the OP standing the aisle ranting in the FAs face, did they make a move to stand up, were they addressing comments to directly rile up other passengers -- and there is nothing to substantiate any of those scenarios. Still, the posters here want to tar and the feather the OP because he cursed ... once ... about the situation? Sorry, I cannot, do not and will not understand that position.
The FA was incorrect to get law enforcement involved without SOMETHING else to this story which the OP doesn't detail and very possibly does not exist. Note that none of my "other" incidents in any way, shape or form are related to the fact that the guy cursed.
