      I flew for 42 yrs. At 62 yrs old. Had to retire early for my mom’s caregiving. I was really tired of working full time and coming home and take care of myself, mom and my pets. Many of my friends were still flying and I wish I would have stayed and continued until 66. The pay changed a lot and I was able to hold any schedules I wanted and have holidays off. But family came first.
      Yes, there were many people who complained about their job and management. But I enjoyed flying and met so many good people and bad people.
      It is the best job for people who love to travel and enjoy working with the public and good money for all the perks like staying in nice hotels and exotic destinations.

    • @Ashley-og9ti
      @Ashley-og9ti Рік тому +11

      Omg I completely understand. Even thought I was alone in feeling alone lol. Tbh, I self isolate a lot by choice. I tend to feel no one understands me, my thinking, my behaviors, battling anxiety and depression. A simple trip to the grocery store or getting gas can be a struggle. While everyone was complaining about the pandemic and quarantining, I was in pure bliss 🤭 sometimes I have to push myself to get up and just get out more. That's actually part of the reason I am pursing a career as a FA, to get out my comfort zone. Anyway, that loneliness aspect of the job didn't really phase me either 😉
      Wishing you the best, peace & happiness 🙏🏾💛✨️

    I’m in a weird funk right now with this job. The first year and half was AMAZING. The past six months have been brutal.
    My mental health took a toll. I’ve worked the nastiest crews who are extremely negative. Experiencing a lot of super senior people who bully us and tell us, how horrible this job is. Some flights have been rough. Some days I feel like people look down on this profession. Honestly, it’s been mostly dealing with crews.
    Im only 2 years in. But I’ve come across so many senior people who talk about the good old days, and say this job sucks now.
    However, I don’t understand and I can’t stand the negativity. It’s putting me just into a major depression. We have this job that allows to experience so many things, be independent, create our own schedules.
    I worked a 9-5 before being a flight attendant so I know what it’s like to not have flexibility, and freedom.
    Honestly, I’ve always wanted to be a flight attendant. I worked so hard in training to get here. I’m trying to not let the negativity and misery of super senior people impact me.
    But when you’re surrounded by it, it’s hard.
    Anyway, sorry for the rant!! 😂😂
    Just got to keep on pushing through.

    I can't even remember the last time I went into the crew room. Because I'm local based and don't commute, and we have a electronic system to check in as well as get messages and info, at my airline, I really don't have a reason to go into the crew room. It makes an incredible difference starting your day without the unsolicited negativity and toxicity that can permeate a crew room.

    One time for that beautiful smile and skin sis. But I was wondering I just got my CJO for a regional 😁, but I don’t plan on giving up my apartment because I just recently renewed my lease , so depending on my base hopefully close to me , I’m thinking of commuting and the hotel situation. So how does staying at the hotel work? Is it free or discounted or certain ones? The crash pads to me are givin and looking worse than dorm room situations😂😂😂. And also , can one have a second job? I’ve heard conflicting things and I’ve always been one to keep at least two or three . Hustla baby 😂😂😂. Talk to you soon 😊

    With the hours you work, would it be sustainable to work another job at the same time? Say a retail or fast food worker while also being a flight attendant?

    • @Andrewmusic731
      @Andrewmusic731 2 роки тому

      No because those jobs expect you to have full availability and aren’t flexible. An FA would just pick up extra shifts. Vast pay difference there too.

    • @CharliEdwards
      @CharliEdwards  2 роки тому +3

      Personally I disagree. I know plenty of FA that work retail and fast food.

    If it's all too much for someone to handle the gossip and the drama then I would say you probably best just stay home.😂 That is every job. Shoot! I've been friends with nuns who had some interesting stories at the convent. Everybody has a bad day and everybody needs to share it. It's just life. But if someone is going through high anxiety or depression then I could see how it would get to somebody because they will have a hard time tuning that stuff out.
