off topic but related when discussing service as above...I also take issue with FAs being touted as "Safety Personnel" and here is why...Police, Fire and EMS people get training and then use it daily...if you cannot perform you are not going to last (normally anyway there are always crack slippers)...yet an FA can go 30 years and never do anything but serve food and drinks...yet when things go south I am supposed to have confidence this person is going to be able to keep it together when they have never experienced true danger? Would you have confidence in a Paramedic that sat at a desk for 20 years then came to YOUR heart attack? They have never been truly tested as a LEO or Fireman has under real stress and I trust myself more than them to get myself out of a bad situation. I do not feel safer because of the FAs being on board.
