Yer.. definitely agree there. Some tech crew can be difficult at times but in all honesty they have a very serious and important job. One they have worked bloody hard for and I respect that completely. Just remember wannabeingoal that they cant actually come out and make their food or coffee so why shouldnt they be able to make some requests for specific modification so they can enjoy their service. I certainly wouldnt want to serve someone with something they didnt want or that wasnt to their liking.
We have all been light hearted in here, possibly the same way light hearted jokes could be made about cabin crew.. but certainly with no disrespect to the flight crew. You may have taken that one a bit too far.... maybe when you do start flying (unless you do) you will understand.

I sent this to my family and friends who all laughed because, although I don't fly any more, I still point like an FA, can eat whilst running from shower to car, hate the thought of staying in a hotel, and can't see a mess in the kitchen without freaking out about the time it will take to clean it!
As for the pilot's I only ever had one or two that didn't get what we did, and when they were paxing, forget it, they didn't want the passengers to know who they were, because they wanted to relax on the flight as well, so, for the most part they'd ask to not be served at all!

The only difference is the prostitutes can take Christmas and New Year's Eve off and they actually DO make a lot of Money!!!
If you know someone in the aviation industry please share this with them so they don't feel bad anymore....

I think I can relate to most of the things in this thread.
When I am on public transport, I can pretty much stand up without holding onto the railings....just like turbulence.
When I have people around for dinner, I run my kitchen like a first class galley. Everything is timed and I also heat the plates.
Oh dear....

In the airline I used to fly for, the more senior you are, the less money you make... like prostitutes. Cos all the juniors get the good flights with the most allowance
