We can't all agree on this I am afraid. Pilots maybe, military people, some doctors and nurses, social workers working on child abuse, CIA agents trying to track down terrorists, etc etc... have
very stressful jobs.
Flight attendants do not require particularly high skills or qualifications. In the very very rare instances in which they are required to exercise their public safety role (ie, in an accident) they are in no different position to train conductors in a similar situation, or other people responsible for public safety.
There is nothing special about the status of FA's, nor anything especially stressful. Stress is a normal part of life, and there are millions of people who have to fulfill duties which are equally or more stressful than FA's. Is there any way that we can explode this particular myth please?
