What worldtraveler7 doesn't comprehend, is that people can be happy.

He may sit in Singapore earning a vast amount of cash waving his tiny penis in the air asking for somebody to kiss his bum, clearly denied the breast at birth.

Yes flight attendants of todays generation are paid peanuts in comparison to their colleagues of yesteryear, fact. However aviation is a career you dream about as a kid, as a pilot or a flight attendant, I can't imagine many kids aspiring to be bankers, or middle management. Unfortunately businessmen know that these jobs are aspirational, therefore a surplus number of people wish to become pilots/flight attendants, therefore offering lower salaries because they know they can get people into jobs for less money, makes perfect business sense.

I had a flight where our sole flight attendant saved a little girls life after she swallowed a sweet whole and got lodged in her throat. The flight attendants actions of the heimlich maneuver, back slaps and basically beating the living day lights out of this little girl to save her life. How many people can genuinely say they have single handedly saved a life all in a days work (baring the medical profession)? All we did up front was dive the aircraft into the nearest airport as safely and quickly as possible, we felt we did nothing, the cabin attendant was the bees knees. So yes hopefully on a routine flight all you get from the CC is the safety demo and a cup of tea, but if need be, they are the right people for the job when the smelly stuff hits the fan.

The first person worldtraveller7 would ask assistance from when he's in an emergency onboard an aircraft are flight attendants, guaranteed.

So whilst people are enjoying their lives and loving their job earning less money compared to low life scum like world traveller7 who clearly find the need to shout about how much money he has to cover up the fact his life is worthless and is just a waste of Oxygen.
