Military charter flights are the most pleasurable flights for me to work. They are so kind, respectful, and grateful for everything I do. The verbal exchanges with them are so sweet and fun. And of course, looking at them in uniform isn’t so bad either. What they don’t know is the admiration that I have for them. To try and even THINK about what they go through is not even possible. The physical and mental challenges that they must face just blow my mind. I have such great respect for these special angels that protect my freedom every single day.

When Electrolux Meets Flowbee
From Flight Attendant X - I would like to proclaim my absolute hatred for these types of hairdryers. Not only does it look like a vacuum cleaner or a Flowbee, but it takes me 25 minutes to dry my hair with this POS.
A Headboard High Five
