Burnt-out FA???
Under the heading of "Evil Things A Flight Attendant Can Do," I would rate this at the low end of the scale. If the FA was a high school teacher, and was acting like that, she would get the worst end of it from the kids. Indeed I wouldn't be suprised if some customers were dishing the FA within her earshot. This story confirms the correctness of my "FA survival" strategy: (1) Carry-on your own food and (non-alcoholic) drink assuming, of course, that it is available on the airside of security. (2) Close one's eyes when the FA comes near your seat, thus avoiding all cabin service. So far I haven't encountered an FA or gate agent who, because of my "catering," wanted to deny me boarding.
