Some cc wannabes having passed their interviews with SIA were told they could not be employed because they have failed their medical checks. Most suffered from scoliosis and in one case ADHD.
Should I feel sorry for them because they told me flying as a cc is their dream or perhaps it may even be a blessing in disguise?

Some IFM,having been too long and unable to adept to CC type of lifestyle,being overseas and out of touch,top down handling grows mental issues like being godlight,actually gorilla like,feeling superior,hence all the weird behavioural cases.Its like occupational hazards unable to fit to outside life and in hock to financial bind cannot dismount from the tiger.No cure,till ci,di or court case.No great lose,you got your life ahead,instead of worse,being in the top ten in CC.Everybody changes flight to avoid,or get hell on board.At 35000 feet above nearer to heaven or h"".Great choice by natural,or guardian angel.
If you can't get your dream job then I can empathize with you. But flying is not the only good job for you can do other better things. Don't be sad just go on living a happy life (I am addressing those cc wannabes)
My dream job is to be a rock star playing many instruments
I have skin problems
I have some mental issues
Found out only after a medical check.
Should I do something else?
I cant sings very well anyway but I am willing to learn
I cant dress up very well but I can try
I cant talk very well, but you should get better after each exposure.
How?
Same thing as dreaming to be a flight attendant.
Hi, BT, I would not view a rejection as a "blessing in disguise" for the following reasons:-
1. A job applicant will always be hopeful, and will see a rejection as a disappointment. To say that it is a "blessing in disguise" seems to imply that the job applicant was lucky not to have gotten the job. If so, why did the applicant apply for the job in the first place? To tell oneself that it is a blessing seems to be self-deception and a feeble attempt to comfort oneself.
2. The statement "blessing in disguise" also suggest that the job applied for is so bad and not getting is not only OK, but a blessing. Who in his, or her, sane mind would make all the effort to apply for a job and then say, "hurray! I didn't get the job, otherwise, it will be hell for me.
Now,let's get back to the unsuccessful cc wannabes and, perhaps, you can advise them on the following:-
1. scoliosis is not an ailment which would hamper a normal day to day tasks. But because of some job requirements, SQ tend to be a little strict and could have imposed additional extra stringent standard for its applicants. On the other hand, and if I am not mistaken, asome airlines have the normal cut-off point;
2. Scoliosis is incurable but can be reduced. Hence, given that some airlines benchmark could be lower, the relevant cc wannabes could perhaps seek some medical treatment and apply with other airlines. Hopefully, the ailment would not disqualify him/her.
Above are my humble opinion and I am sure not everybody will agree.
Those with scoliosis should get cured,eg via therapy and strapon aid.Otherwise,cc had a scoloi- queen.We use to call her Pye Kar vietbu.Totally corrupt minded ,force selling insurance to juniors in her team,Tua thow finally moved on to management ,due to no connection to crews,with such mercenary attitude.Nevertheless,management fail to detect her Eva.Basically karma means cannot escape fate of life,a cripple for life.
i declared that i had mild fracture when i was 13yo and failed the medicals. so best not to declare at all.
You passed the tough interview but sadly you were too honest and wad disqualified. Frankly I do not see why SQ rejected you after all the fracture was when we're 13.
