What disturbs me the most these days is how quickly ground and air crew resort to "I'll call security" even when challenged in a respectful and civil way. Had that experience myself a few years ago.
And just what planet are you on Avman?
The only time I've ever been challenged in a respectful way is when a nervous passenger asks me if the turbulence is normal. Every other time it's at least passive aggressive or just plain aggressive. No-one should have to put up with insults and the crew member was right to call security. Sounds like security did a pretty good job too.
