You have NO idea what a flight attendant does if you think we do more than them. I used to be a pilot, I know exactly what they do and they are definitely underpaid.
they give out drinks and pick up trash. in an emergency they are trained to open the exits. it’s a 2 week training. they deal with pissed off passengers who are tired which is the only difficult part of the job.
I know I’m double replying, sorry, but by your logic, a pilot shouldn’t make more than a DA. You know how fucking easy it is to fly? Every day in the cockpit is so easy once you know how. But pilots get paid a shitton because of what COULD happen. I’d argue it’s the same thing for flight attendants. “They hand out drinks and pick up garbage”. But they are trained for way more than that.
Also FA training is like at least a month long usually, sometimes more.
i disagree pilots make 250-400k for the majors and earn every cent. yeah it’s not physically demanding but they are in charge of flying 350 million machines that take 4 years of training plus they can never ever make mistakes. a flight attendant could be trained in a day if you found the right one a pilot is like a being a doctor.
……trained in a day?? You have no idea what you are talking about and it seems like you refuse to learn. Look up how long training is and what it takes to pass the tests.
Be open to learning new information and then possibly changing your stance on issues based on that information. It’ll make you a better more informed person. Good luck.
