Parade Uniform

Of course the job itself is not always attractive, but most people do not possess the mobility of the hostess to see the world while still young enough to enjoy it. What is a flight attendant that makes young children and nostalgic adults look happy and envious? Could be the lifestyle and freedom of the jet to faraway places? The uniform? The star quality of those chosen few?

Perhaps it is all these things and more. Remember watch a child at about age 6, and flight attendant standing in the doorway of a big plane, wearing a military uniform, looking, with shiny wings in his jacket. What looked elegant and important work on the plane! I decided then that that was what I wanted to be someday. For me, it was not just a job – it was a life!

Initially, the first cabin attendants were the men who helped maintain the integrity of the aircraft, while swatting flies mailbags and elevation. Then in the 1930s female attendants were hired as hostesses or waitresses and worked on piston engine or propeller aircraft, as the Curtiss Condor. His duties include offering sandwiches and thermoses of water and handing out gum and cotton to provide comfort to the ears of the passengers. These flight attendants were originally registered nurses, but this requirement was dropped in the 1940s. The work is now seen as glamorous, but many young women wanted to be air hostesses, only a select few. In those days, when he married stewardesses who were dismissed.

In the 1960s, the men were at work. United Airlines has hired eight men from Hawaii to fly to Hawaii routes. As a result of the influx of men from that point, was established Eastern Airlines the job title of "flight attendant". Employment remained a great attraction for men and women became commonplace for flight attendants to be male or female, young or old, married or single, any race, even parents. Wages began to rise – the fever had claimed the plane more lives!

Once you have "fever" that will be with you for the rest of his life, there is no cure, and anyone who has never had a flight attendant career will never understand how powerful it is. The flight crews are very close partners as a result of this unique passion common. There is a wide belief that work experience is a bold and unusual sleep, flight attendants are considered gutsy individuals who consider the world as their playground recreation.

Of course, those of us who fly know that in reality the work is hard work, sometimes with long hours and customers in a bad mood. It is difficult find the glamor in their work when you're down on your hands and knees in the kitchen, through the companies seeking the lower tray of prosthesis someone left on a tray! Or working 14 hours a day due to a mechanical delay. O settlement of a planeload of passengers dizzy during severe turbulence. These things are part of the work of a flight attendant. But the fun and excitement far exceeds these things, and I do not know the flight attendants that would change everything in a nine to five pounds!

Charisma has little to do with the appearance of flight attendants as the places they travel. These men and women dressed sharply that serve meals or drinks in the air seems to be the epitome of the novel, what will they do when they are off duty – shop in Rome? Party in Frankfurt? Catch accounts glass in a Mardi Gras parade? Tour the Pyramids or catacomb? What is it that celebrities often respond to interesting stories and what they could say about of these people?

Each airline has a single uniform, elegant extent with the airline logo and wings. Earn their wings, and flight attendants go a lot of trouble to get them! Training is sometimes long and arduous. Students flight attendant must not only be strong and resourceful but intelligent, healthy and energetic for graduation.

Possibly the most important component of the aura of mystery surrounding the flight attendant is the fact that it is difficult to obtain is often the most coveted. Not everyone can become a flight attendant, thousands of aspiring flight attendant apply for these jobs every month, but few are chosen. The Statistics show that on average, less than 10% of those who apply are selected for the job. What separates the chosen people who are left behind? That's part of the magic, and sometimes it is not something you can even put into words. After meeting the requirements, applicants must give some personality to the recruiter, and recruiters are experts in discovering who have what it takes.

Nobody can say with certainty just what the charm of a flight attendant. But I remember the face of a Young in one of my flights. He was taking his first plane trip and looked at me with astonishment and asked: "Is this what makes for their work – meeting people and travel to different places all the time? Kewl.
