Today's Annoyance: That rudeness sometimes seems contagious
Mantra of the Day: Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength. - Eric Hoffer
Gailen David, aka The Sky Steward, veteran flight attendant, self-proclaimed "Ambassador of Civilized Traveler", and author of "Jetiquette: The Customer Experience and You" is my new hero!
Commercial travel can be bad enough as a passenger; I can only imagine what he has gone through over the past few decades. If you haven't subscribed to his blog, you definitely should. If nothing else, please read, print and share his Jetiquette Seatback Briefing Card. It is an absolute necessity that should be distributed by EVERY airline! I plan to take a couple of copies on my next flights and pass them out, as needed.
