From reading this thread - yes, all of it! I have gained the distinct impression that the person/male or female encrypted as 'BASED ON FACT" is probably the cabin crew purser who was asked to leave at Miami. The vitriol is way overboard for anyone else who remained on the aircraft to destination; these all seem to be sensibly silent.

We have all suffered from the Big Chief power syndrome that sets in with people in command, from before the time that Fletcher Christian and his associates set Captain Bligh adrift. But as jet aircraft do not commonly take two or more years to reach destination, if Captain Bligh is in command, as innocent passengers would unwittingly suffer from any crew conflict, cabin crew who feel put upon should carry out their duty without complaint and certainly without fomenting mutiny. Just write a letter later.

Even though trolly dollys no longer have to serve and smile, and can carry on into their late middle years, all the same they are more easily replaced than experienced aircrew.
