The things (some) cabin crew say...
Before I share my story with you all, let me make it clear that I fly enough to realise that not all CC are like this individual.
I was sat on the back row of a 738 flight back from Sharm el Sheikh, along with the group I had being diving with. Fortunately we are frequent fliers and have a sense of humour.
The fun started a few minutes before TO when the 2 CC seated in the aft galley drew the curtain. The young lady CC in question clearly thought the curtain was soundproof, and for the next quarter of an hour she loudly chatted away to her colleague.
First we were treated to the story of her missing lipstick, including a blow by blow description of each shop she had visited until finally she found just the right shade of colour. She then explained how said lipstick had rolled under a trolley in the galley on TO, and disappeared through a gap into the fuselage a few weeks ago. She had looked for it on subsequent flights but not found it. Let's just hope it isn't wedged into anything too important then...
Next we were treated to an explanation of why she wasn't afraid to die in a plane crash (although apparently her mum worries ever so much, even though "I have told her it would be very quick and I wouldn't feel a thing").
Unfortunately we were deprived of any more pearls wisdom as the CC were released after TO.
