I actually had a girl that recognized me from high school and is now managing a fast food restaurant, she told me I was the only one who was nice to her in school, and because of me she decided to be the same way no matter how mean people were. That is how she was able to get up the chain with her positive thinking and always being nice. Sounds lame but it works. It is nice how much you can learn from the people you see everyday.

Every flight I took had either a singing or joking attendant on the pre-flight announcements and the attendants could fit down the aisle without knocking your shoulder off. I miss those days. Now it's a constant sales pitch! I can't wait for the standup seats to arrive. The upsell for the sit down seats will probably make a social media IPO stock % increase look like a day at the bargain store. Luckily I have had access to a corporate jet for the past year.....

Of course, that was after the pre-flight briefing and Southwest personnel are known to have a sense of humor. My favorite announcement was at landing.

Your section regarding "sometimes less is more" definitely hits home in many facets of my daily life. I think that many people get caught up in the reverse, and until you realize this, you may have trouble finding success in any industry that you might live. After all said and done, I travel a lot and will never look at flight attendants the same. hahah Neil,

If you are unable to resolve a dispute with your supervisor and let them work out. Then, somewhere in a private home or and cry, do not have a beer and a slide away. Makes me even more worried these days, if this is the way flight attendants have the courage to act. Fortunately, I think this is just an isolated case.

I really appreciate the "Sometimes You Have to Be Strict" tip. I'm a freelance writer and just yesterday I had to let a client go ("fire" him? "break up with" him? I don't know the official terminology for this particular relationship) because he was expecting the impossible from me on a regular basis. Thanks for reminding me that I'm worth more than that. Actually, I have several back-up clients (though this was by far my biggest client), and I have an entirely new venture up my sleeve at the moment, but in these economic times, it was a very tough decision.
