Let us be magnanimous and forgive Shu Min (as though she had done something very wrong) and move on. But then, judging by the postings on the internet many Singaporeans are still very upset with Shu Min. I think some of these S'poreans are an ugly lot. They are big bullies,all pouncing on a helpless girl who had apologised, been counselled and had her blog removed....what else would you want her to do? Kiss your ass?
Ok,ok ,let me digress a little ( my readers are getting fed up with all these Shu Min stuff) and tell you a story about a young upstart Singaporean who happened to be my business class passenger.
This gentleman,probably as young as my youngest child flexed his index finger and gestured me toward him and his two business associates in the cabin. "You call this champagne?....its rubbish,its flat" he yelled at me. I apologised and took away the glasses and went to the galley. I poured another 3 glasses of champagne from an opened bottle and served the young man and his associates. I stood there and as he sipped the champagne he gleefully told the other two that "this is more like champagne" and said "this old guy knows his job", referring to me. At that point of time, I feel like kicking his ass because the 3 glasses of champagne that I served were from the same bottle my crew had served them earlier.

funny story indeed!
Yes W.Y., it was funny indeed but you know, this guy was trying to show off to his friends that he knew what champagne was all about.
maybe it's your crew got put 'sumthing' into the champange.. I am not surprise if they did coz a man with that attitude, .. I will serve him my pee if i am really mad! LOL!
hey ahsiao, my crew also feel like peeing into the drink but we are trained not to be emotinal but i don't blame you if you do. this type of ppl really piss u off lol.
This is Mr Pax X who read too much into juicy aircrew antics or gossips, like some of yours.
You are right about these nightmare passengers. What about the other side of the coin? I'm always seated meekly in my seat, seatbelt on, keep my eyes to myself and my hands clasped and avoid going to the toilet until I find an airport one. I dread to choose what I want for meals or drinks and usually say, I'll have that, pointing to guy's tray or glass next to my seat. Do you need newspapers? I just took whats offerred from nearest bundle. Its ok if its a Japanese newspaper and I cant read in that language. When, its time to leave the plane after landing, I'll still be belted up, waiting patiently for the corridor to be cleared. Am I a good passenger?
Whatever, to tell you the truth, its suffocating and I rather go by land if only I could.
Frankly, here's my 'silly imagination.' =
For normal pax..
Stewardesses are strutting around, goodlooking, ingenious makeup and uniforms, smiling for all reasons and that appear intimidating. Its like hey I'm only doing my job, dont you dare stare or even try, ok? We may not be Charlie Angels but we have our ways tsk tsk to get even. Just scream with another stewardess in cahoot and report, then you know. We're no bimbo ok?
For special pax, the ones they want to attract..
smell of fragrant perfume, bursting chests, and another kind sway in walk and smile No.1. More hardworking somehow, to impress. We got hearts too and make good secretary (or wife), you know.
-----
For the normal pax.
The equally well groomed stewards are like just out of Gym California. I thought I could see in their starched haired head, blinking..Ladies first, I want to serve you all the way especially girls with wild streeks or any ladies with deep pockets. Hey, uneducated or tough guys, I hold a blackbelt or a stun gun, ok?
To special pax..
I'm at your service sir, as long as you don't complain to management ok? I'm straight you know.. or did I forgot and swayed my bum at you then? By the way,I worked here because I like to travel, thats the only reason.
Pax X says: ok ok lah, What our Flt No. please? Can I borrow your pen?
hahahahaha! I love those great acts.
Hi Mr.Pax X, you are absolutely right, cos the world is a stage and we are actors and actresses. However, there are sincere and honest crew too who really love their jobs....girls and boys included.
To us, paxs like you are wonderful and nice to have on board but then it takes all sorts to make the world.
Yes, I do agree with you that travelling in a plane is seldom comfortable and like you I prefer land transportation. But then, Kim Jon Ill also prefer to travel by land. It took Kim, perhaps ,a few weeks to reach Moscow by train.
Thanks for comments Mr. X and hope to hear from you again.
OMG! What a rude passanger. If i was you i would have threw him into the wall. ofcourse you wouldnt be able 2 but i would not blame you if you wanted to. And Singaporean girls do not age. They are beautiful for life. Did any of the the male air stewards ever do anything back to customers like this? Or did they pick on the females mainly? Btw I love your blog!
Yes some are rude but not the majority. No we male crew do not take it back at the passengers. The girls get bullied like any other crew too. Ya the sia gals are quite pretty and thanks for liking my blog.
