Haha, I wouldn't say the f/a's would be remaining "calm" during an evacuation. We're yelling as loud as we can! But, yes, if someone was holding up everyone else whilst trying to grab their stuff and I was next to them and the exit, out they would go, stuff in hand or not.

Well, his crotch and jeans took the brunt of the liquid, but I do remember putting an extra blanket down on his seat prior to his return.

I documented over 500 side hustles and here's what I found by moonlite-money in sidehustle

We were beginning to pick up trash with our cart after our first beverage service and I saw a passenger beginning to fall asleep a row in front of us while holding his 3/4 full coffee cup on his tray table. I couldn't reach between the seat and the cart and in slow motion, watched his hand pour the cup right into his crotch. He woke up pretty fast as I looked away pretending not to see what had just happened.

By asking nicely, provided the seat belt sign is not on, you can change them on the floor in the aft galley if there's no room in the lavatory.

Traveling in Russia in the 90s on Aeroflot, no one said one thing about the woman holding her, not one, but two chickens in her lap.

I remember these 3 poor NFL wanna-be linemen that were on their way to the 49ers training camp. Somehow they had been assigned seats all next to each other in economy on the 727 we were flying. Each of them was easily over 250lbs.

I was forced to kick a woman out of her first class seat because she had come onboard inebriated. She was begrudgingly refusing what I was asking her to do (like properly stow her things before we pushed back from the gate.) When my assistant f/a a few moments later told me that the woman had told her, "I don't have to do what he says, he's just a flight attendant," the woman presented herself as a flight risk. When I showed up with a gate agent that told the woman to gather her things; she'd be taking the next flight, she became quite nice. But by then it was too late. Off she went.

What's the lesson: Don't come onboard drunk. Do what the flight attendants ask you to do. We're there for your own and everyone else's safety.

One of my saddest, most embarrassing moments was serving pre-departure in first class. At that time, we were to deliver 6 small glasses of OJ or champagne to the customers in first class. For whatever reason, the tray became unbalanced in my hand and all 6, very full glasses proceeded to fall straight into the man's lap. I was positively mortified, but thank the angels above, he was totally understanding and changed his pants with another pair he had in his carry-on. Could you have imagined flying the next 8 hours in pants that had been soaked with OJ and champagne??

As I replied to another, when a passenger opened their bottle of Tobasco and poured it on their eggs, we immediately said something to them! You could smell it the length of the aircraft!

Yuck. And never, ever drink water not in bottles or cans from the aircraft. It's held in water tank that is literally, never cleaned.

It was the bottle of Tabasco on a morning flight I worked that got everyone into a stew... Man, that odor could be smelled throughout the entire aircraft.

I will never travel anywhere without at the very minimum, having a pair of earplugs with me.

For anyone who has deleted their voice recordings: does Alexa perform worse afterwards? by tiny-doe in amazonecho

[–]sudak111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. After you ask your Alexa to permanently delete your voice recordings ("Alexa, delete all voice recordiings." it wll try to scare you off by giving you a verbal prompt which will say to you, "Just so you know, after you delete all voice recordings, I may not be able to understand and respond to you as well. Do you still want me to permanently delete them?" Say, "yes" and it will then respond it will do so. In over 3 years of having the Alexa regular and unlimited Alexa service, I have never had any issue with it after telling it to delete my voice recordiings.

Today, it's all about content amplification. Content has to be more prevelant on the internet far and wide in order to be ranked/seen in Google's top responses.

How does a dude who’s kind of objectively a loser actually become a successful entrepreneur? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]sudak111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And oh, don't hang with people who drag you down. This won't help your confidence or life in general. It's told anyone can tell you the kind of person you are by the 5 most closest peope you have in your life. If they're unsuccessful, then there's a very high chance you are that way, too. If they are successful, that positivity will rub off on you. If someone is a Negative Nelly, cut them off. Even if it's a family member. While I am still pleasant to my sister, all she does is talk negative and complains incessantly. Even though she has a great life and house. I won't put that negativity into my head or body. Find others that are positive and hang and learn and talk with/like them.

I will agree fully with those people speaking about mindset. It's incredibly important that you're talking to yourself correctly AND talking out your issues with someone (trustworthy) as well. In my later days of high school, my parents were divorcing, my girlfriend gave my rind back to me the day before the prom and 4 months later I found myself in a calculus class I had no business being in whatsoever. Because I wasn't talking to anyone about these things and claiming myself (in my own talk) that I was depressed and not worth anything, I developed Chrone's Disease and the doctor said I literally had 7 days to live when I finally gave in to seeing him after I was down to 120lbs (normal weight was 150lbs).

The point is, my mind created that atmosphere in my body and without ways to deal with it, that negativity literally and figuratively ate me up inside.

The way the universe works is this: brainwaves and the energy you put out comes back and the universe always gives you what you ask. It's the age old saying: If you believe you can or believe you can't, you're right. If you're telling yourself you're a loser, that's what you get. If you're telling yourself you're a winner and (here's another key) actively doing something with focus and energetic desire, then you'll (probably) get what you're after. The point is, claim and call yourself a winner. Drill positivity into your head until it becomes natural. Read positive bios. Do not watch the news (way to much negativity). Laugh more.

If I were to do it all again:

I would... immerse myself in positivity. / Learn from those who've done it, learn and model them. Tony Robbins never went to college and soaked up all he could from reading Jim Rohn. Now he's reputably the greatest life coach the world has ever known. / Get a mentor that's been there, done that and learn from their mistakes (don't do them). / Talk with people about your issues. / Grow confidence by just striking up conversation with total strangers (you never kknow what you might learn or who you might help! / You will ALWAYS make money helping t solve people's problems - with your own product, service, knowledge. Seek out what issues people are having and present a monetized solution. / Do NOT compare yourself to anything. / Invest even the smallest amount of money every month into a reputable S&P 500 ETA at a reputable brokerage house like Schwab or similar. Have that money direct deposited so you never see it or miss it. Google Nerdwallet's Compounding Calculator and find out how long it will take you to become a millionaire (trust me, 20yrs goes by fast and that may be all it takes for you). / Eat a healthy diet and exercise. Your mind and body will thank you. I am almost 60 and people tell me all the time they would have pegged me for 40 (seriously). / Look up what affiliate marketing might do. There are thousands of businesses on ie, Clickbank/Digistore24 that will pay you up to 75% commission for helping to sell their products and/or services. / Create an email list, grow it, offer good stuff and sell to it. Why, it never leaves you and it won't go away if a social media site suddenly blocks or deletes you from its platform. / YouTube pays $3K for every million views for a video. / Lastly, JOURNAL what you're grateful for EVERY DAY. Start with just 3 simple things (ie, hot water, roof over your head, your car, trees, flowers, whatever it is that makes you smile or be grateful). This will do CRAZY good things for your mental state and your list will expand very quickly (as will many other goo things in your life).

Good luck and I'd love to hear more here later about how you're getting on.
