My mother is a flight attendant and she hasn’t said a thing and just does her job! She’s also in the hardest hit age range. It is amazing to me the amount of complaining! Also the message from the airlines to employees is business as usual (they are always told to wash hands etc), and a majority of airline employees make significantly less than any consultant.

Flight attendants are hourly employees. No worky, no payey. Consultants can work from home.

Seems like their culture is great, but a much higher work load due to the nature of the company. Thanks! Happy to answer DM's too
