Hi
I worked for BA Short Haul from April 2000 til December of the same year. I really had a great time but I would say it is all about your attitude. If you go down that route, make the most of it.... And only fun memories will remain.
Just to keep the story short, before working as Cabin Crew, I had worked as Bush Pilot and Ground Crew. After I did it, I went to Fly Single Turbine,Twin Turbine. Twin Piston and finally here I am today, getting Type rated on the 75.
In the past few years, I regret nothing and certainly not having been Cabin Crew...
