Stone the flamin' crows! Stop the ride, I want to get off. Is this really where we're at these days when a complaint about in-flight "catering" gets you "meeted and greeted" by the boys in blue? Farkinell!

Mind you, this is the gosh darn U S of A so I'm not really surprised though it does show the lousy attitude of the F/A.
she's an F/A - not an expert in other languages and cultures (although she should be sensitive to them)
Spot on Taildragger67, me ol' china. Why would she assume the pax had sworn at her, just because there was a word used that she hadn't heard before. If you assume you make an a$$ out of you and you.

They are certainly one of a kind, our USAmerican ubervolks.
