      Pros

      My passion is to assure comfort without compromising safety. Love being the face of the Airline I represent. In this position I get the satisfaction feeling needed. Facing Diversity in a fast pace environment. Flexibility and caring are two words that I can describe myself.

      Cons

      In the past I would say that there were lots of sacrifices. Leaving your family on a spare of the moment...But at this point in my life, I do not have any attachments

      Advice to Management

      The Flight Attendant is the face of your company. She/he is the one person that the customers interact the most. You must comply with FAA REGULATIONS AND EASILY EXPLAIN THAT IS ALL IN THE NAME OF SAFETY. Good Judgement skills and flexibility are essential. All can be this should be accomplished with a smile and respect.
