Racist EK F/D?
I beg to differ!
Racism? WHAT?
Most of the EK F/d are very professional, (sometimes overly!) friendly and merely get pissed off when none of the the multi-cultural Emirates crew "family" deign to visit them .
Surely it's mere respect to poke your head in and introduce yourself to the Captain, if you have the time? Not to mention the security aspect? How can he id you in a hostile situation otherwise?
Even if you're intimidated by F/D - get over it! We're all a team, right, so even if they're both a pair of idiots, give a thought to the poor GB (Galley-Bitch!!!!!!) at the front that has to communicate with them every 20 minutes! You go in, you come out, gives him/her a bit of a reprieve. What you'll mostly find is that they are lovely, professional guys, ask silly questions, break up the time and LEARN something! Remember, they don't "Buddy Bid" but you rarely hear of bitch fights in the cock-pit!
See you in the F/D then???
