Bolty - it was not the engineers fault either. The aircraft had gone U/S and as a result the pax were required to wait another night.

When we (the crew) arrived at the gate to get on and prep the aircraft we interrupted the ground staff making an announcement that another aircraft would be chartered in as the aircraft needed heavy maitemance. As we went to walk away to hide from the DP's (disgruntled pax) one of them came up to me and shoved his boarding pass in my face and yelled "get me on this flight"... i responded "get out of my face" and he punched me. Of course he got arrested, and of course i was well supported but how was it my fault? It was noones fault, these things just happen.

I dont get paid enough to be abused or assaulted, and whats worse is that his wife had a running commentary as the police took him away - "the little fag deserved it". To which i responded "well u wont be going anywhere now will you".. lol but thats another story.
