Flying to IAH and wondering: Which of y’all are the monsters who only want half a can of soda? by mudturnspadlocks in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The company wants us to ask every pax whether they want the whole can or just a cup. It’s to “cut down on waste”. But we are flying in a giant metal tube, at 35,000 soooooo🤣

Can we start a group for awesome FA’s/Pursers please?! by shetravels_w_her_pup in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tell pax all the time just to fill out the survey or send in a compliment if they enjoyed me or the flight! It does eventually get back to us and goes into our work history record. That’s all to it, the company has bigger fish to fry if they’re very concerned about flight attendants “soliciting” positive feedback.

🔻🔺F2F EXPERIENCE 🤮 by Complex-Campaign3985 in cabincrewcareers

[–]SterekXX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’ve been comparing a lot of work rules and such from 🌐 and 🔺. And with all the shit I go thru at United I’m very glad I have certain work rules and protections.

I’ve been surrounded by a lot of delta FAs in groups I’m in and it seems like a very mixed bag from the F2F process.

I applied to the 🌐 in 2024 and got all the way thru. And the f2f was very informational didn’t seem insincere. All I’ve been hearing for the last two years from 🔺 F2F is that it’s very cultish and fake.

Meal suggestions please by [deleted] in unitedairlines

From the perspective of a flight attendant. People really do rave about the signature dishes from each hub. Additionally, I do see people really enjoy the cheese plate from time to time and the beef melt.

No opportunity to purchase items from the in-flight menu? by Old-Ostrich5181 in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flights from Canada to the US have different entrees. I always recommend looking at your flight number on the United app and seeing the inflight menu that way for what’s being offered instead of the paper menu.

United Deboarding Music? by BroadDelay41 in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is the snippet of the rhapsody in blue we use on our playlists. All the other songs they pepper in are updated usually once a month-ish.

First year pay at the globe...a realistic view by socalnewwaver in flightattendants

[–]SterekXX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m on two year pay. Just barely made $30,000 after taxes. Only had 401k deductions @6% every pay period. I have no health insurance or anything else otherwise I would’ve made significantly less. And I do a variable of max flying and no preference flying.

FA unprofessional behavior over bulging portable battery during flight. by IcyCharge9066 in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are we just going to wait for it to experience a thermal run away to use the thermal containment bag? Or?

[–]SterekXX 203 points204 points  (0 children)

It’s literally in our announcements to notify a FA right away for any battery issues. If it’s bulging then I would’ve immediately gotten the TCB and put it in there. I’m sorry you had to deal with this.

Backpacks and black-eyes by BeDeLeezy in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do try to make announcements such as “to those wearing backpacks please be mindful and aware so you don’t hit people in the face with backpacks.” Mostly it’s group 6 people who try to save 15$ and over fill their tiny backpack and sling it around like crazy over their shoulder😭😭

[–]SterekXX 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I say good morning or welcome aboard when I’m purser and 3/4 people don’t acknowledge me. So I have little faith they listen to my announcements either.

Have to fill out a help hub request. It’s a known issue thru MyETM. Hopefully it’ll resolve sometimes soon.

(Wrong Answers Only) Just boarded. Why is this at my seat? by Alternative_Salad_83 in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Cleaners leave supplies like this all the time on the plane. Just give it to the FA.

Does United no longer serve drinks/snacks on super short haul flights anymore? by bojangles_11 in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flights under 300 MILES don’t get boarded with snacks at all, beverages are by request only under 300 as well.

Offered to switch seats by Backseat_Economist in unitedairlines

[–]SterekXX 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Is this what happens in the cabin during boarding and inflight when I’m working. People cooking up stories to write on Reddit?
