I bet the RON's are interesting:ok:
But when you get home from that 3 day trip, try convincing your wife you didn't sample any "wings":E |
Stressfree,
l its called freedom What I am debating is that, there is no need to have this sort of behaviour on airlines. Us flight attendants from all over the world, have come along way from the days when we were viewed only as "sexy" things to look at in the sky. We are there for saftey, and service. NOT as sex objects. As I have said before, there is a time and place for everything. We are professionals, lets keep it that way. What would you do if your dentist came out in a bikini, or boxer shorts? And, how about the heart surgeon wheeling you into surgery dressed as bozo the clown. Would you still class them as professionals? ] Its been ages since I read such ****** on these forums! |
Did somebody say Dentist in a bikini... Giddy up! I think its time for a dental ckeck.:E

Those Hooter woman are red hot devils. They would look terrific in a night club or cheerleading at your favourite union match. As Cabin Crew, I am afraid I do not agree. I am a red hot blooded straight guy, just do not agree with it in the air. I would prefer a woman in uniform any day. Sexy, and powerful. It leaves more to the imagination.;) :rolleyes: ;)

A recent article in The Economist stated that Hooters Air stated that all flight saftety and service requirements are being covered by professional FA's 'the Hooters girls are just an added bonus'...

Hypoxic Harry,
There you go again.................. You really need to GROW UP. Shooting from the hip, again, you completely miss the point (no surprises there). The fact is that whether you think there is a place in this business for glamourous F/A's or not is not an issue. The fact is that Hooters have made a market for this kind of thing and if it pays then thats a few more jobs for those in the industry. It may not be for you but to slag off those who are trying to make a living in the business is just not on. People should be able to trade on whatever assets they have (thats freedom). Whats your opinion of Virgin Atlantic? The girls are all far to sexy? You think thats a coincidence and it just works out that way? Safety, service or whatever - it dosn't hurt to look desirable and dosn't mean you surrender your professionalism by looking good. I'm sorry to say that you do yourself a dis-service by the nonsense you speak, also to the colleagues around you. Face facts - if a gimmick (tacky or not) sells seats then be grateful for it. You may need something extra some day. Its not an ideal world and many airlines would be really keen to boost sales by whatever legitimate method possible; jobs depend on it. I predict that when you've built up a bit of experience you will moderate your opinion and be more tolerant of things that don't quite meet your own expectations. Let me also say I dont mean you any offence or bad feeling but I reckon you're giving the Hooters girls an unfair deal. I'd better stop there or the moderator will step in. Think on my friend, life isn't always black or white, the comment you make about me reading my own posts lets you down, not me, but you. Wisdom is hard to come by - I suggest you look harder.............. :ok: |
Harry,you're great.Raised a great big smile after returning from a tough nightshift.
Xenia,loved the whip icon but aren't you risking raising Harry's wrath for having overtly sexual connotation's?:D |
Oh come on now, HH really does have his own opinion. And no one here will change each other's views on the world, so let's keep it civil.
Besides, I clicked on this thread expecting to find a few pictures, not an argument. :zzz: (We need more pictures please.) |
Stressfree,
This debate is becoming rather boring, but seems to continue. I am aware that each person in the world has a very different idea on what is right, and what is wrong in society. You seem to be upset that I have made it well known that I do not agree with the "sex sells" image in avaiation. And I repeat IN AVAIATION! You clearly do not agree that I have stated what my thoughts are. Its all well and fair to say that I have not given the hooters girls a fair deal. Well blow me down with a wet red feather! What about a fair deal to others who are only airing ones thoughts. Its a two way street pal. My posts are not letting me down any more than yours are letting you down, so it may be a good idea to not tell me to grow up, as that could easily be thrown right back at you too. As we all know, play the ball not the player, and this has just got way out of line now. I'd like to thank all the Ppruners that do support and allow me for having my own thoughts on "Hooters Air". Now just before I sign off, I'd like to say just one final time that I do not agree with what these girls are doing onboard an aircraft. Said it before and I have said it again.:yuk: |
Geez guys - everyone settle down. This topic has obviously attracted attention but this is a forum for discussion not slagging off. I can understand all the opinions stressed about this issue. On one hand it is thought that sex shouldn't be used to sell in the aviation industry. On the other hand it is said that it is a good idea as there is an audience for such an airline and it does create employment opportunities.
I myself don't completely agree with the idea behind the Hooters airline. Personally (and I am not saying that anyone else's opinion is wrong here) I feel that taking Hooters to the skies was taking it a little too far. However - it is still an airline - that is up and running whether is it liked or not. There are still jobs available and should respectable women or men decide to take up the opportunity then good luck to them all. I think this issue of debate has reached its boiling point and I feel everyone needs to calm down and realise that every individual person has a different opinion. That is not a bad thing - afterall we are only human. craic1510:ok: |
Hypoxic Harry the Hypocritical Homo!
Harry, there's nothing disgusting about the human body. Yours maybe - but not theirs. Women with tight clothing and loose morals should be encouraged in every industry. Remember, you can't spell prude without spelling rude! |
Harry,
Choices: 1. Argue with you 2. Go to the pub and drink beer (proper English ale) Guess which I fancy? I will not spend any more time on this issue, when you're prepared to enter the real world then we'll discuss it. Cheerio :rolleyes: |
Strafer,
My oh my, what a mature post. Thanking for adding your worthless 20 cents worth. Stressfree, I will not spend any more time on this issue, when you're prepared to enter the real world then we'll discuss it. I will never be entering your so called "real" world, so no need to discuss this any further. I have stated what my thoughts are on this topic, and I am proud of my thoughts and will stand by them. And if you trotting on down to the pub for an ale saves myself and other PPRUNERS from reading more :mad: posts from you, then I am all for it. Giddy up sunshine, and keep those ale's coming your way! |
20 cents? Surely you mean 7p?
BTW Harold, accusing people of being 'pig-headed', 'stubborn', 'having a closed mind' etc- do you actually read your own posts? |
Besides, I clicked on this thread expecting to find a few pictures, not an argument. (We need more pictures please.) :oh: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/332874/M/ |
I am not even going to enter a debate with you strafer, your input hs no intrest to my thoughts at all.
Goodbye, and wipe the dribble from your chin, after looking at the photo that has just been posted. We wouldn't want you to fry yourself if you dribble all over your keyboard now would we? |
Hey Guys... oh and Homo Harry,
Great picture in that second last post... absolutley gorgeous! I agree, we need more of these pics! Stop fooling yourself Harry, you know as well as i know sex sells and whether you like it or not, its going to keep on selling and at an exceptionaly increasing rate. I don't know about this la la land your living in, but in this real world mate, all men appreciate women like these hooters girls and they would be kidding themselves if they said otherwise. Professionalism deserves its respect no matter what career path is chosen, you remember that, and all these nonsense posts trying to say that these girls are trash is obviously losing everyones respect!! Harry... time to wake up bro! :ok: Andrew! |
Harry - Slow down! Your typing's getting a little frantic in the last post. One-handed maybe?
You're right though - there's no need for a debate, I think you've proved my points well enough. Give my regards to the 19th Century. :ok: |
Harry,
Yawn, as I said before I really can't be bothered with your 'beliefs', I'd rather eat my dog's ear wax than listen to any more of your self-righteous, politically correct :mad: .......... The only way you'll be happy is by starting your career again with Saudia Airlines in Riyadh and joining in with the religeous police beating a western girl whos accidently shown an ankle in public (it happens, I've seen it). Enjoy the dark ages. Strafer and Andrew, Gentlemen, I agree about the pictures, outstanding totty, wish we had some like that where I work. More please. :ok: Whats the betting the moderator shuts this one down? :p |
