What is the one thing you wish you knew BEFORE you became a flight attendant
Hello everybody!
I am wondering what is everybody thinking about naming only ONE thing that you wish you knew about the flying life before you became part of the "force".

That human stupidity knows no boundaries!
"Oh really sir you didn't know that you can't smoke, take drugs, place babies under the seat in front, open the window, remain seated, join the mile high club.........."

That basking in the sun down-route would quadruple the number of wrinkles 20 years down the line!
And that people really do puke on you from time to time!
And one that was highlighted today,
Asking people to show their boarding card when boarding is a completely unreasonable request which shows I am a complete jobsworth and should not be allowed in charge of an aircraft cabin!

And when I worked as supernumary crew many years ago and we flew snotty snooty beastly cheeky schoolkids to 'the colonies' I learnt that misbehaviour can be corrected very quickly at a prearranged signal to the captain to announce 'a little turbulence' and push the stick forward!

I wish someone had told me that sleep would become a rare and elusive creature, the search for which would take over my life.
Or that I would develop an almost pathological hatred of tomato juice.
Or that I would become a secret hotel/destination snob.
Or that I would suddenly find myself fascinated by all things "wheelie bag" related.
Or that I can no longer apparently count to "ONE".

Being a retired pilot I am an imposter on this thread.
However, I empathise with you all. I join you in becoming
off also with many idiotic passengers when flying as a PAX myself.

That you should always open Worcestershire sauce away from your uniform white shirts....
And on that note, when someone orders a Bloody Mary at the front of the cabin that you are about to make another 236 of them....
