Flight Attendant Diaries: Look-alikes and Bare Feet

I want to start documenting my thoughts and experiences I have each time I work.  On one of my recent 4-day trips there were 2 things that really stood out to me:

1.  I love when people think they see a celebrity on board, so they start discreetly taking pictures on their cell phone.  Just because that person happens to have curly red hair and has snowboarding equipment doesn't mean he is Shaun White.  Seriously, it was not him and you just look like a creepy stalker.
warning:
 2. Why would anyone take their shoes off and walk around on a dirty carpet that probably hasn't been cleaned since the plane was built?  I see this happen almost every flight.  Passengers want to be comfortable, I get it.  However, you need to keep yourself somewhat protected from germs.  Some passengers will even walk into the lavatory with their bare feet, if you can believe that!  It is just plain unsanitary.

    1. It can definitely be hard to bite my tongue sometimes, especially when people are rude. I have been known to say some sassy things back (with a smile of course, so they don't know if I am joking or serious...but I am definitely serious)!

    1. LOL, although I would like to take credit for that picture, it's just one I found on the internet. I almost did take a pic, but I couldn't figure out how to do it without the guy seeing me! Next time I will get my own pictures...that is my new goal, hahaha.

  8. Hi Jenny, I found your blog thru a comment you left on mine, and I am loving all of your post! I have only been on a plane once (yikes, I know) but found this post hysterical, and will have to ask my husband if he has ever seen this happen. I am your newest follower.

  9. My dad has wanted me to become a flight attendant since I was a little girl because he wanted the flight discount advantage. And even though I fly alll the time, I don't actually like to fly! I would love to experience these crazy travel stories though. So funny. Keep 'em coming!

  11. Hey! Thanks for stopping by and commenting! They say Bikram Yoga is really about controlling your breath in the hot room, I have been able to get more flexible, but believe me this was not how I started. Love your tutorial on the slip! Hope you visit again! Have a great weekend!

  12. Barefoot bathroom trips hasn't been cool since B-Spears made it famous a few years back. I agree with the barefooted-plane-walk around. Bring slippers dude.
