Pax handbaggage
Nothing gets on my goat more than stupid pax who want me to lift their heavy Samsonite into the overhead. They've carried it all the way through the airport as well. I ususally manage to smile and say politely 'Due to health and safety regualtions I'm not permitted to lift luggage but I can have it stowed in the hold for you...' They usually gain strength pretty quickly...
Why do big burly business men think the petite flight attendant will be able to lift it? Do I really want to damage my back and be off work on crappy sick basic pay?
How do you cope?
