He would gladly give up his corporate VP gig to be a FA (assuming the pay and benefits were the same). His mom recently retired after 30 yrs as a UA Int'l FA, so it runs in his family.
The biggest challenge with our combined travel is ensuring proper parenting coverage for the dog at home.
I would never make is a FA. I would not last a day. I would very quickly tell most whinning paxs (paying a fare that does not even cover the airline's operating costs) to shut up and sit down.
