Description

A brash, funny, and downright ballsy ode to the ups and downs of life in the air.
Diary of a Pissed-Off Flight Attendant is an eye opening, behind the scenes, indiscreet account based on almost two decades of aviation industry experience. Combining a unique blend of hilarious customer antics with the secrets behind the enviable lives of flight attendants and pilots, Diary of a Pissed-Off Flight Attendant provides an all-access pass for frequent flyers and novice travelers alike.
Growing up, author Sydney Pearl admired her Aunt Claire's seemingly glamorous career. Then, Sydney became a flight attendant and found out it was a lot less glamorous and a lot more stressful than she'd thought it would be. Whether admitting to intentionally spilling drinks on passengers, or telling the story of how she unknowingly became “the help”, Sydney Pearl takes you on a gut-busting journey into what really happens above 10,000 feet.

    Wow. This girl IS angry. The text is dripping with disdain for the handicapped, the uninitiated traveler, on through to those who don't dress right or even look right! She spends every other chapter telling us her conflicting story of being a sweet child with great manners but a b**** who just doesn't put up with the annoying flaws of others. I know from experience, working with the public is challenging and frustrating but there's just no humorous silver lining in this book. I hope this person grows up soon and learns that kindness and compassion is healthier than vitriol. Thank your creator for good looks and a good job; and remember, those annoying people in "your office" PAY for your office.
