Kanga767 , I've always known the term 'shopping a colleague ' as meaning to inform on someone or ' grass ' on them but if this was quoted by a male flight attendant then there may have been some sort of sexual connotation associated with it .
If you've ever heard Julian Clarey speak you'll know what I mean!
Also the term 'shafted' is something that our management do to us frequently . It's the only thing they excel at.
