Don't know where to put this, but-Jetblue is not happy with a certain flight attendant, he has at least thousands of hits on his Facebook since
he went cuckoo.
I wish I had the guts to do what he did!(can I have his job?)
So, what do you think?
Wow!
A provocative title that goes unexplained.
An allegation that isn't backed up with any proof.
A claim that someone has done something to warrant attention, but without identifying the person or explaining what exactly it is he supposedly did.
You don't write spam for a living, by any chance?
Kam, this is news all over the internet, all over
the tv news station abc, nbc, cbs, fox, everywhere ,
even our local Monterey Herald,
Amr, Scott Neugroschel(sp), and ol Sigh will dis me., my typing and gammer is suspect too.
Kam, if you are the mod you can delete it this thread.
I know I can delete it. I was just wondering what it was all about since I had not heard anything about it.
It was a rather gorgeous story about a flight attendant who, having been sworn at by a passenger one too many times, swore back at her over the tannoy so that everybody could hear it, finished with something like, "That's it, I quit," deployed the escape chute (the plane was still on the ground) and hurled himself out of the plane down the chute! What a fantastic way to quit your job!
kam ,try facebook, steve slater. i'm one of his new pals, 220 of them, and he's had 200,000 hits so far!
the screaming passenger at the airport was fined for having overweight luggage , Steve saw it (?) and was probably whooping.(or sliding) he got arrested. for what I wonder?
or something like that anyways.Steve will know.
Keith, the story is detailed here. I'm surprised you didn't hear about it.
People are talking about him wanting his job back, and what career opportunities he has in front of him.
It reminds me of the old saying, Sometimes, when God closes a door, he opens up an emergency escape chute and slides down to the tarmack....
That is a funny story. Thanks, guys!
so far, I've had 493 hits for a certain article about Steve Slater!
I have had 673 hits since 8am pst, since one certain person didnt know this! (maybe you should do pushups for a certain grocery store., and I was no rehire!)
Is he a hero? People are a bit too fond of throwing that word around but in the words of Inigo Montoya, "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
Of course people think his story is brilliant. Everyone who hates their job would love to go out in a blaze of glory like that, but even he seems to have realised that he went too far and now wants his job back. That's not very heroic, is it?
And the dictionary definition of "hero" is someone "distinguished by exceptional courage and nobility and strength." Where does Slater fit into this definition?
Not a hero, IMO - just a man who lost his temper and over-reacted, and did so in public where lots of people saw it and thought his behaviour was fun.
He had his bikes stolen the other day. More here.
I've had 949 plus hits since I posted
Steve Slater,Hero.
So you're a linkspammer?
With this device, quit your job JetBlue Steven Slater style!
How are you supposed to get on it if you're wearing it?
I'm pretty sure it's a joke, John. You can even tell that the second image, which shows the extended chute deployed from the pack, is photoshopped onto the image of the guy, because the image of the guy appears to be identical to the image of him without the chute.
I'm sure it is. It's clever...but unrealistic.
So why is this board in Nitcentralia?
Probably because Bs didn't know where it should go, & it stayed there because I didn't think about moving it until you said something.
Thanks! :-)
Moved.
