I was dreading my return to work, as most new moms probably do. At least, it is my belief, that to some extent this is a difficult transition for most new moms. I thought I wanted to quit, but was torn b/c I knew it would be extremely difficult if I ever wanted to be a F/A again, and let's face it... i did not want to lose my travel benefits. September was tough. The first trip was very hard and I cried multiple times, right into people's diet coke! Everyone was very nice, and trust me I told EVERYONE what was wrong. So, I went into October thinking.. "I will quit soon, but I have to work for the next few months, so I will do it."
Here is the good news, I am going into November with a much different attitude. I am excited about it. I have come to the conclusion, that I need to work. It helps my attitude, it helps my state of mind, and it, well, just helps! A couple of my mom friends told me to hang onto it. That it was part-timeish and I would be thankful for it. I did not believe them, NOT AT ALL.
I still get a bit jealous of the SAHM friends, when I have to miss something, or Gates has to miss something.
Now, just so you know, these are my thoughts as I begin November, I will let you know how I feel after dealing with the holiday travelers, and the busiest travel day of the year. My attitude going into December might very well be DRAMATICALLY different!

People in Tuscon are weird. What is it with Tuscon? I never knew that before today. Maybe they were just visiting, but what a bunch of strange birds...
Oh, and 2 of the said birds, were drunk. It was a 9:30 departure and they were already drunk. They were not happy about us not giving them any drinks. We did not even have anything but vodka, but I told them we did not have anything. Poor drunk fools.

Pickle Beginning.
Many years ago, as a young girl, I took a plane ride. It was then, when I was probably around 8 years old that I wanted to become a stewardess, aka, flight attendant. This dream lasted all through high school, and then through college. When I graduated college I was hired on as a flight attendant and have been making my way across the USA for the last 8.5 years!
I come across crazy people, nice people, mean people, movie star people, legless people, blind people, stinky people, fragile people, basically any kind of person there is, I think I have seen them! I was quite, scratch that QUITE, narrow minded when I began this job. I have learned about many things, and seen some things, I NEVER thought I would see. It is an interesting job, the good thing about it is, nothing is ever the same! I am never going to have a predictable day. I meet lots of interesting folks, and some duds too. This aspect of my life is a small one, but a funny one, and sometimes pretty entertaining.
