He Did Downward Dog In The Aisle, Sir

Ever watched a grown man do yoga and push-ups in an airplane aisle while he blocks the cabin? We did—and that’s just one scene from a wild run that starts with an international first and ends with a sharp talk about money, manners, and respect at 35,000 feet.

We kick off with Shawn’s first real international trip to Athens, where the 787’s picture-window jump seats deliver jaw-dropping views, the van ride eats ninety minutes of life, and a power nap becomes a time warp. Behind the polished first-class curtain, we hit turbulence of a different kind: a long‑tenured teammate who can’t keep pace, a missed van call, and the domino effect that pushes everyone harder. It’s a candid look at crew dynamics, precision service, and how one weak link can turn a smooth flight into a quiet scramble.

Then we zoom out to the bigger question: should wealth change how we treat people? We’ve seen it—stars who are gracious and stars who aren’t, status passengers who get extra care while economy travelers are overlooked, and colleagues who confuse money with importance. We argue for a better standard: consistent kindness, gratitude for invisible labor, and respect that doesn’t depend on a boarding zone. Along the way, we detour through cabin etiquette (no seat‑hopping over people, close the shade when it blinds others), real aviation moments (cracked windshields, cockpit windows popping on the roll), and why de‑escalation—not threats—is the core skill in a pressurized tube.

It’s story-driven, a little chaotic, often funny, and grounded in what makes travel work: teamwork, details, and everyday decency. If you’ve ever wondered what crews really see, or how to be the passenger everyone wants nearby, this one’s for you.

SPEAKER_03 7:41

Yeah, bye, babe. Here we go.

SPEAKER_04 7:42

Here we go. Anyhow, man, I went on this trip. I got so much to talk to. The crew was like, You're gonna need two hours at least. Like, this is like just too much material, right? Like, it was so crazy. So, first of all, shout out to my crew. Best, great. We had a great crew. I had a good, they were all wonderful, and they were like shocked because I'm like, you know, I've been flying 36 years, but this is my first like real international trip in like 35 years, you know. I was like, and they were like, no, no, no, no, no. Right? So, anyhow, they were they were flipping out, we had a good time, a gal swatch positions with me, so I didn't have to do the galley and all that stuff, and dude, our service, it's crazy. Like, I mean, I'm it's it it's so crazy, it's so inter like all these little intricate things that you got to do, and I'm talking our first class service. It there's crazy amounts of stuff to do, and you gotta know all this stuff, but you got time to explain it, you know. I mean, right, and if you do try to explain it, or you have somebody that's trying, like don't know it, and they're like a you know, five steps behind, like everybody's pissed off of you and crew because you're interrupting our break time.

SPEAKER_05 8:50

So you would have jacked that shit up. Jagged it up. It was like Could you imagine if you had to do that first class server?

SPEAKER_04 8:57

So I came in, you know, I flew in the day before, I got there, I'm prepping up, I get there, I'm like literally uh you know me, okay. I go to get something to eat beforehand. I leave two hours early to the airport. I get there, I only have like 45 minutes because everything was jacked up in Newark as normal. Right. Took me forever. Got there, got a sandwich, only ate half my sandwich because I was like too worked up to like I'm focused on trying, I gotta get everything right, right? Yeah. And so guess what happens? I get this crew member, she's been flying like 39 years. Okay, she's like, Oh, I fly international all the time. This is the only position I do. She's like this aisle on the plane, blah, blah, blah. She's uh she's in the mid-galley on this plane. We're on a 787. Right. Fucking clueless.

SPEAKER_05 9:48

I knew you were gonna say she sucked, dude.

SPEAKER_04 9:51

No, I'm gonna just say it like it is because I got the crew members uh they're chiming in, believe me. She was fucking clueless. I mean, she was it was a nightmare. You know that you know how we were talking about that one flight attendant that doesn't like they're not pulling their weight and all how like how it messes up the whole entire flow of our service. Like the person had to like, she had to flip positions with her and said, like, I'm doing the galley, get in the aisle. Okay. We did, I had never done this. Right. We had done all our zone. I was going back to their zone to help them do the zone because like I had done five rows and she had done two, and she still had four more to go. It was a nightmare, and she was just stupid.

Athens Layover And First-Class Service Chaos

SPEAKER_05 10:35

That's what people don't understand about in in our job. We come across these people that have been here like 39 years, like myself, okay? Right, but they they don't know what the hell they're doing. No, they have they and you and you're looking, what what what have you been doing all these years?

SPEAKER_04 10:49

Like you definitely didn't pay attention. Well, honestly, we thought she was an imposter. Like, I'm I'm serious. Like, she she said things and did things like she had never seen the job before. So you wanted to start checking IDs? Yeah, I was like, Are you really employed now? Oh, I can believe it, man. Yeah, that's how bad it was. Everybody was like, I mean, the the person, she's like, just kill me now. No, I'm gonna kill her. No, then you know, then then she the purser was hilarious. So I'm working the position, and you know you and me, you and I, like we're we're like, we get out of that service and it's like bam, bam, bam. I'm knocking it out. Yep, like we did domestic, okay? Yep. She purser's like, now, like we're supposed to be on the two different aisles, and she, the purser, had this gal, so she like kind of hijacked me and took me over because she's like, No, I'm gonna work with you on this section of the service, and then she put the other galley into with the girl, and there she's like, I hate you, I'm gonna kill you. And so now she's like, I don't even have to kill myself, she's gonna kill me. Right.

SPEAKER_05 11:54

See, this is the shit that they don't see because the big old bucket of suck.

SPEAKER_04 11:57

Like, I know everybody that was on the plane, like the service went well because I was covering stuff and we were all covering it, and that so there's four of us up there taking care of these 40-some people, right? And it it went fine as far as a pasture viewpoint, but from a crew viewpoint, there wasn't one person on the crew who was like, That girl sucks. Who is she? Why aren't you like like everybody want to kill her? Now here, like now I need to make it even worse. So that's why I needed so much more for the show. So she started complaining about this stuff. She's complaining about how somebody stole one of her trips. Has anybody stole a trip in your life in your career? Nope. Never, okay? So she said, I was supposed to be going to Cape Town and I got this trip, and I was somebody changed it, and she stole it from me and all this stuff. So then she's so I'm like, uh, things aren't adding up here. So then next thing she does in the middle of the night, we're shifts or we're doing our breaks, she falls on her face in first class, in the in the in the aisle, like literally trips over somebody. I mean, like, crazy. Okay, then then the next day, we're down at the van, van 755. Guess when she showed up. 805. Did you leave her? They were gonna lead her, and then she's like texting, and then she gets on the van and she was like, I got a phone call beforehand. My somebody died, and dude, it is like one thing after another. Like, but she got a cell phone, dude. She was a cell phone. She was in the elevator, she was so traumatized that she didn't even know she could make it. Regardless, you got responsibilities. You got a whole crew. We had a whole the entire crew.

SPEAKER_05 13:38

But wait a minute, she's in the she's in the elevator with the cell phone going down, and you can't get out of the cell uh you can't get out of the elevator. Doesn't call anybody knowing that she's late.

SPEAKER_01 13:48

Hmm.

SPEAKER_04 13:49

Like literally, the everybody in this crew by the end of this little trip was ready to kill this lady. She's lucky you didn't leave her. Oh, we should have left her. Yeah. We should have left her. She should have ended. I told you, hour and a half taxi.

SPEAKER_05 14:01

International Uber.

SPEAKER_04 14:03

Right. That's the only way you're getting there. But each one of these things, like, it was like all these things were adding up. She kept doing like we're like the the comma denominator. She's an idiot. No fly, no fly zone. You remember her name. Yeah, she I don't want to ever see her again. Nope. I mean, honestly, the lady was seemed to be a sweet lady. Then she's getting married in like two weeks, too. I'm telling you, this it never stopped. It never stopped. I'm like, you are fucking disappointed.

SPEAKER_05 14:36

Think of that marriage.

SPEAKER_04 14:37

You're dis dude.

SPEAKER_05 14:38

No. I mean, she'd been doing she'd been doing the job for 39 years and she sucks at it. Yeah. So she's just getting married.

SPEAKER_04 14:46

I'm gonna tell you, maybe because she sucks at it is why she's getting married, but there's no reason why any other male in this world would want to be with this woman. But anyway, that that's just my opinion. But anyway.

SPEAKER_05 15:01

So the first trip was fun. But you forgot about what you did, though, because I asked you. I said, Did you get out and about? Did I get out and about? Now here's here's the exact here's a true answer about uh what happens with the flight details. Okay, you're all excited. You're going to this international destination, which was Athens, Greece. Right? That's a definitely cool destination. So there's so many things to see in Athens. All right. Yeah. So you you get there, what time do you get there? Like eight in the morning.

SPEAKER_04 15:34

Eight in the morning. Athens time. But but that ended up being like 1 a.m. Right now, Shawnee's a little tired.

SPEAKER_05 15:42

Little bit. So you decide to go take a nap.

SPEAKER_04 15:47

Right. I just lay down. I want to alarm. I'm gonna set my alarm. One o'clock, I'm out. Right. I got that. It gives me like another four hours before I got to go to dinner. Right. So we're supposed to all get together with crew. So you're all set up, man. You're all studying ready to go.

SPEAKER_05 16:02

I'm gonna get out there. I'm gonna hit it, man. I'm seeing all these things in Adlins.

SPEAKER_04 16:05

I lay down. Yep. I end up waking up and I'm like, it's 3 p.m.

SPEAKER_05 16:12

That shit is real.

SPEAKER_04 16:14

But that's like that's I'm like, oh man, I'm missing it. I'm missing it.

SPEAKER_05 16:18

You don't realize how tired your ass is until you hit that bed.

SPEAKER_04 16:22

I get out of bed. I'm like, I gotta get up. I gotta get downtown. I gotta get, I gotta see something there. Like it literally. You can't say a piece of bakle bar, stuff in my face. I just gotta get good chicken.

SPEAKER_05 16:33

You can't go to Athens and go, what'd you do? I've seen the inside of my hotel room.

SPEAKER_04 16:37

No, no, no, no. You can't.

SPEAKER_05 16:39

Okay, now this is the best part too, because like we complain about taking a van ride. Sometimes, sometimes a van ride domestically, you're like, oh man, shit, it's like a 30-minute van ride right downtown. You're like, this is pissed. Because you hate it. You got to take an early van. How long was your van ride? Hour and a half. An hour and a half to get to the damn.

SPEAKER_04 16:58

Hour and a half, dude. It was like it the traffic was, I mean, insane. Insane. People complain about like LA and all that stuff. I'm telling you right now, it was just, it was a counterpart to LA easily with like two-lane roads, right? And they're they're throwing the buses, they are amazing there. Like when they maneuver these buses through these little roads and stuff, you're like, he's gonna hit that car. He's gonna hit that car and zip right by it, no problems. Like it was unbelievable.

SPEAKER_05 17:26

Now, when you put your uniform on, international, okay? Yeah, domestic is like you're you take a shower and you show up. Sometimes they don't take a shower, they just show up. Oh, right? I mean, you you they're a little disheveled every once in a while to come down with the bed head, wet head. No, everybody's cleaned up internationally. International is a different game, isn't it?

SPEAKER_04 17:47

Yeah, like you got the complete uniform on, you cut the jackets, everybody's tightened up a little bit tighter.

SPEAKER_05 17:53

You know, it's you walk through the you walk through the international uh terminal, you see all these international crews. Yeah, you look they're sharp.

SPEAKER_04 18:00

SPEAKER_05 18:26

Yeah, so they didn't see they don't even know who that Sean is. Everybody asked me, they're like, hey, gee, why don't you go why don't you go back international? I'm like, because I can't wear my sweater all the time. You can't, you can though. I can't wear it all the time. Yes, you can. No, because you gotta wear your blazer.

SPEAKER_04 18:40

No, you don't. Really? Yeah. So they they got like uh uh guys were wearing their sweater with the vest, and then they had like, yeah, they had all different types of things going on there, but you can you can wear your sweater. Like one dude on the crew, he had his sweater on the whole time. And really no me. It's too hot for all that. Yeah, I love my sweater. I was sweating. Mr. Rogers. I even the jacket, like I couldn't wait to get it off.

SPEAKER_05 19:02

I was like, Oh, you are so not used to a jacket. So here's a I would love to have seen that picture. Let's talk about the jacket.

SPEAKER_04 19:08

Let's talk about the jacket. So my wife tells me, she says, Hey, how many jackets are you gonna lose now that you transfer international? Because she knows I don't wear it, right? Right. And so I'm never gonna I'm gonna lose it, right? So I get on, I get this wonderful flight attendant I'm working with. I love this skaty. Sharon, shout out, she's she's a bomb. So she's like, I'll help you remember it. I'll help you remember it. Just hang your jacket with my jacket. So I do that. I put him in her closet with hers and all this stuff, dude. You know it. We get into Greece. I'm walking up the jet bridge. We get to the top of the escalator, getting ready to go down into customs. Sharon turns around and is like, I was in there, white shirt. She's like, Where's your jacket?

SPEAKER_02 19:50

SPEAKER_05 27:06

I have no idea.

SPEAKER_04 27:07

I don't know.

SPEAKER_05 27:08

I have no clue. I it was so funny though, because you know, you you're getting these conversations and you don't understand them, right? Yeah. But that's what that translator app, I guess, is not.

SPEAKER_04 27:19

I think it I think you use it as with pictures.

SPEAKER_05 27:22

That's like you saying we that we knew Spanish, and you're like, yeah, we know a little Spanish. We don't know Spanish. Died. Ceresa? I don't know Hebrew either. I don't know Hebrew.

SPEAKER_04 27:32

SPEAKER_05 27:34

I have no idea. Then I seen this picture. These these guys were looking outside. You know, this was a perfect dad moment. You know how dads stand around and talk about shit.

SPEAKER_04 27:42

Right.

SPEAKER_05 27:42

Like they talk about like trucks, treasures, cars, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 27:45

You start getting like testosterone roll happening.

SPEAKER_05 27:48

Yeah, so they they they got a delay going on because they got to change the tire on the airplane.

SPEAKER_02 27:52

Oh, Jesus.

SPEAKER_05 27:53

Now you've never seen the shit so damn funny, right? A whole group of dads, right? Their hands in their pants. And they're watching the mechanics. And they're watching mechanics. You know that whole conversation. Uh I I bet you that's uh Milwaukee uh hydraulic jack. Yeah. I got one of those at home. I got one of those. Yeah. And now, if it was me, I would probably pull my pickup to the back of that thing and I just haul that sucker right out of here. And you know something? I bet you he'll change. Look at that boy knows what he's doing. I he'll swap that thing around like an indie pit car crew. You bet he handles that Milwaukee tool. Exactly. That boy don't know shit. Look at him. Look at him. That one boy's down there. He ain't knowing a damn thing.

SPEAKER_04 28:31

Yeah. You know those, you know those guys' tools. They're not from Harbor Freed. They got the Rio sheet.

SPEAKER_05 28:36

That's some good ass tools, man. They could be a big ass tire off that thing. I wonder what the torque is on when they gotta put on that. Oh, you know it's a torque. You know it's torque. It was so damn funny. Man, I seen those pictures. And it just, it it was so true how dads they get together and they will they will talk about any kind of shit like that.

SPEAKER_04 28:54

Anything. Right? Heck yeah. If it's male testosterone driven.

SPEAKER_05 29:01

It doesn't even have to be, right? Right. You just get a group of guys together and talk about something stupid. Right. All right, I had a question. Does does money matter to you? I know this. Does it matter to me? Yeah, it doesn't matter to you.

SPEAKER_04 29:13

It makes things easier.

SPEAKER_05 29:14

It does, but okay, should people be treated differently because of money?

SPEAKER_04 29:19

No, hell no.

SPEAKER_05 29:20

They shouldn't, but they are though, right? Well, people you see it all the time.

Passenger Stunts And Cabin Etiquette

SPEAKER_04 29:23

You do see it on the planks. You know, like it's funny that you say that because it's like people, people that uh aren't wealthy or don't have much money and stuff, they tend to treat people different that have the money, you know what I mean? Right. But um, you know, once you have some money, and you don't have to be ultra rich or anything like that, it's like you start realizing, you know, like it's not about the money, right? Right. I mean, people are people, you just treat everybody with dignity and respect.

SPEAKER_05 29:50

But in our job, we come across we come across a lot of people that have a lot of money that you don't know they have money. Sure. And then you get you come across the stars that come on the plane. And some of them are really nice. Yeah. And then you get some of these athletes. I remember one of the athletes, he made his girlfriend pick his damn bag up.

SPEAKER_04 30:07

Dude, I'm going to tell you, those are the people that go on my list. Like, literally, I have there's a few stars that we've had on board that have uh like totally turned me down, turned me off, man. Right. It's like, I mean, they do do shit behavior like that when you're like treating other people badly like that. And just because you're a star, I don't got time for that nonsense. You know?

SPEAKER_05 30:32

That's you know, on the plane, we just had this, and and um for some reason it's like when I watch some crew members and they see they see someone and they know that they have money, all of a sudden they're nice to them. I'm like, well, how about that person over there? Their money is just as important. Kind of irritates me in a way sometimes because just because this person has more money, the person in back that paid for the ticket, their money is just as important as the person's money up front. So you should be just as nice to them as you are to the person in front. But they bend over backwards, right? They come on board, you know, they'll they'll bring their bags on board. Everybody does all this extra stuff with somebody that has a little bit more money than somebody else, but this other person, you know, they're like, oh shit, carry your own damn bag.

SPEAKER_04 31:22

Yeah. Right? You know, but some of that is that like, don't you think some of that is like starstruck stuff?

SPEAKER_05 31:28

No, no, I no, I mean, it's not star struck. They they do it for like certain levels of like um a person that you know comes on the planes. I mean, you know what I'm talking about. I mean, we can't say it, but there there's certain levels that they come on the planes and they treat people a certain way. And and the even the employees they bend over backwards for these people, but it irritates me because the other people are just as important. Yeah, they're just as important. And it just it it just this week it just kind of irritated me because you know, I I seen it so much in in first class that it kind of it really did. It irritated me because I'm you know, I'm always thinking the people in back, their money is just as important.

SPEAKER_04 32:08

So are you are you talking about our like our frequent flyers versus like or are you talking about people that are come on that are appear to be wealthy type of thing?

SPEAKER_05 32:18

Yeah, I mean they they appear to be wealthy, and and and you know, then some of them they know that they're wealthy and and they treat them a certain way, and I and I get that, you know, that's what they do, but you know, they don't treat the people in the back the same way. So I mean I just it I guess it just irritated me.

SPEAKER_04 32:34

The problem is that people don't understand wealth isn't about money. No, no, that's the whole thing. They didn't they don't get it that that you know they're you know life the wealth of life comes not from money. No, it comes from us and how we treat each other and love each other and all that stuff. You don't you don't treat people badly just because you they're a different economic level than you.

SPEAKER_05 32:58

That pisses me off too, the same thing as like you'll see a crew member, they'll go to a hotel, right? You've seen this, they'll let a van driver pick their bag up, show their bag, they will give them a damn dollar. Nothing. Nothing. That's crazy. Pick your own damn bag up then. You know, you're you're you you'll bitch on an airplane about helping somebody, and I get it because their bags are heavy, but yet you'll let this van driver pick your damn bag up, and you only give that give that person a buck.

SPEAKER_04 33:24

Yeah. I'm I'm it's it's one of those things is like, you know, just treat people right, man. And I don't I don't get starstruck anymore anymore. I don't get like like people come on the plane, I'm like, yeah, okay, they're on the plane. Like, you know, it ain't it ain't a thing like that. And sometimes I'm like, you know, oh, this it'd be cool to have a picture with this person because you know I like to take pictures with that person, right? But as far as how I treat them, like I treat them no different than I'm treating you. Right, you know, yep, and that's not that great, but it's like so you know, I let you I let you have that one. I know you did. But anyways, so but it's like, you know, hey, it's uh, you know, people just being kind to one another.

SPEAKER_05 34:07

All right, here's another kind one, right? Yeah, okay. So if you're look like you like looking out the window, I get it. Don't get me wrong. I I I know you do, but when that sun's coming in and that shit is beating down on the on the people across from you and it's blinding them, okay, because you're taller, right, the sun doesn't hit you in the face. Sure. But guess what? It's hitting other people over in the D, E, and F, their eye sockets are burning out. Sure. So even today, just today it happened. And this guy was like, look, I want to look out the window. And I said, I I I understand that. But see, I want these people to be able to see for the rest of their life because that that freaking that that sun is burning their retinals. We just had this happen.

SPEAKER_04 34:51

Like, right before we started recording, we were at a restaurant, and the restaurant, you know, sun was coming through the restaurant, and it was just beaming, it was killing like two, three tables there, and the people sitting at the window, like they were super kind. Like I was like, man, the sun's bright. Is there any way we can close that? And they're like, Oh, yeah, let me help you out. You know, like they weren't most people will be, you know, understanding. Right. But then you got the person that you're talking about that's like put an eye mask on. Exactly. This is it's funny that you're talking about me looking out windows because on this trip, dude, that was the one thing that I absolutely loved about the plane that I was on. That 787? Yeah, the jump seats, dude. You got a picture window. I'm talking bigger than the windows that we normally see on the you know, narrow bodies. It's just this giant window. I get up, I got such great pictures of taking off and landing and coming into Athens and all this stuff. It was, I was like, this is awesome. What have I been doing?

SPEAKER_05 35:47

After you slept so well.

SPEAKER_04 35:48

I've been sitting in galleys with G all this time looking at his ugly mug.

Money, Status, And How We Treat People

SPEAKER_05 35:52

Why am I doing this? Because they pay you. That's with you doing it. They pay you. Hey, before we go around the globe, got to say one more thing. Hey, you know we're uh we're nine for nine.

SPEAKER_04 36:06

Nine for nine? What are you talking about?

SPEAKER_05 36:08

Yeah, we took out another one of them drug boats. I told you we're gonna boom, we're gonna update it every single time. We went nine for nine. We went over to the other coast, though, right?

SPEAKER_04 36:16

Dude, you can I guess they have an endless supply of stupid people. I know we I know there's we we are shipping them internationally all the time, believe me. But it's like, that's crazy, man. And now this one is in the Pacific. Yeah. So now it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter where you are, what ocean you're at.

SPEAKER_05 36:34

The greatest picture is like they show the boat and they're like bing, bing, but you know, the boat's going to across the waves. Bounce on the way. Yeah, it's just bouncing away. And next thing you know, it's flash. Flash. And then bales, like floating. But you know what? I've been waiting. I've been waiting. You know what I've been waiting for? For like one of the big money bales have come up on the shore. No.

SPEAKER_04 36:54

No, no. What are you waiting for? I've been waiting. I've been waiting for. And you know they're out there in the world. Somebody's gonna be protesting about Trump making all those fish high. You know.

SPEAKER_05 37:08

We're nine for nine.

SPEAKER_04 37:09

Have we have we not talked? Nobody's talked about it yet.

SPEAKER_05 37:12

Somebody's like, there's gonna be some green company to the fish. Yeah, exactly. There's gonna be some green company coming out there.

SPEAKER_02 37:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 37:18

You're killing everything.

SPEAKER_02 37:19

They're killing it.

SPEAKER_05 37:20

It's the plankton. Plankton's got fentanyl on it. I got some of my sushi. Well, I tell you what, right? We'll we'll just keep we will just keep televising this shit. Maybe them dumb people won't bring the boats over.

SPEAKER_04 37:33

Dude. Nine for nine. Nine for nine. Love that. Heck yeah, man. Let's go around the world. All right, man. Blue. Around the world. We're not going long and road. We're gonna talk about our topics here. What's going on?

SPEAKER_05 37:44

The topics. 737 Max, Denver to LA diverted to Salt Lake City. After the crew reported a crack in the windshield, have you ever had that? You ever had an in-flight and got a crack in the windshield? Yes. Yep. So have I.

SPEAKER_04 37:58

Yes. That happens. Crazy shit, right? I was talking to Carol about this whole thing. It was like, like, have you had, you know, what was up? Because she had a um, she had an FO that she was flying with, and the FO was like looking at the window, and she kept like looking at one, being like acting funny, but she wasn't saying anything to Carol. Right. She was as the captain. And she's just sitting there and kind of weird, and she was Carol picked up on that. She was not like just acting peculiar. And she's like, What's the matter? She's like, I think our I think our windows cracked.

SPEAKER_05 38:32

It's like it was like it has like three though, right? Is it five?

SPEAKER_04 38:36

I throw up it's three. I I have no idea. Literally, I'm gonna find out that technically speaking, on the window, I know it's at least a double pane, right? Right. But um, and it's your hope is a single pane. Yeah, it's tempered highly tempered. And uh uh yeah, but we've had that happen so many times. Spider crack, man. Planes get the windows hit, the impact.

SPEAKER_05 38:57

We had crazy shit one time. They uh they we had um had to have a a window replaced down in it was like Sarasota. Yeah. One of these one of these small little places where you had contract maintenance. So they went and replaced it, and then they had that setting glue that was in it, and it's supposed to set it for so many hours. Yeah, and and they this is what I love back then. This years ago, this is what you love years ago. So they they were like, oh, well, we'll you just put some high speed tape around the the crevice of it, and it'll be fine, right? Right. So we we we sat there and it dried for like I don't know, four hours or something like that. Supposed to cure for like 12, but they're like, we put ice speed tape around it, it's you know, it'd be good. So we took off and 3M 3M does mean shit. We're only going 500 miles across 500 miles an hour across the ground. That's it. Yeah, so anyway, walked into the cockpit, the whole cockpit window, the captain's side, was black. The glue, the glue like spread all into it, right? It spread all the way up the window. You couldn't even see it. Did you return? Yeah. No, we just kept going. We got one window, Sean. Yeah, I'll just lean on the landing. Exactly. It's not like Ace Ventura, you can put your damn head out the window, keep driving.

SPEAKER_04 40:17

Yeah, dude.

SPEAKER_05 40:18

500 miles an hour. Whoop, there goes your head.

SPEAKER_04 40:20

Yeah. That's funny, like that you mentioned that too, because back in the day we did a lot of maintenance stuff. Like, we would like sit around and wait for whatever needed to be done, cure or whatever. Right. And that's how long the delay would be, right? But then today, like, they just take the plane out of service. Like, it's like roll it out, get a new plane, bring it in here, or they just cancel the fight, right? But none of this uh high-speed tape junk.

SPEAKER_05 40:48

So those pilots they descended to 26,000 feet, landed safely in Salt Lake City, where the maintenance team inspected the damage. There you go. Nice little crack in a windshield.

SPEAKER_04 41:00

And they probably were like, What the hell were you doing flying? Like, are you stupid?

SPEAKER_05 41:08

Are you kidding me? Um okay, so preparing to depart Minneapolis for Las Vegas. That's interesting. All right, Minneapolis to Vegas. Interesting crew, uh crowd on that one. On Wednesday, when the pilot suddenly aborted takeoff after a cockpit window unexpectedly swung open.

SPEAKER_04 41:30

Is that crazy?

SPEAKER_05 41:31

Is that crazy? That shit is nice. Dude, you're rolling down the runway and all of a sudden, boom, the window pops open. Let's see, was that part of our check?

SPEAKER_04 41:41

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 41:41

Make sure the window's locked.

SPEAKER_04 41:43

Yo, who opened the sunroof? Like, did you you hit the wrong button? Their sunroof shouldn't be open right now. Let's see, window lock check.

SPEAKER_05 41:56

No need for the fire and rescue. Don't wait. We're fine. We're just running a checklist. You forgot the window.

SPEAKER_04 42:01

The window. Anyways, so I was asking my wife about this. I'm like, has this ever happened? She's like, Yeah, this happens. Like, she goes, It's part of uh our checklist. We have a checklist that we actually have to they have to actually pull on their window. Right. Because I guess you know, like the how the windows are slanted in the cockpit, they're like tilted backward at angles, so they just like slam back, like roll back on those tracks real quick, easy. Yeah, and so if they're not like latched and actually physically click to lock, then they just pop open. Well, it'd be a good idea. Yeah, that's a good check.

SPEAKER_05 42:35

It's like we do on our doors, right? Make sure the handle is locked and doors inward.

SPEAKER_04 42:40

Yeah, make sure everything is armed, ready to go. Yeah, lock your window. Lock your lock my check the window.

SPEAKER_05 42:49

The little bitty thing. It's the details of matter, man. I love this next one though. Tensions escalated when a lead flight attendant accused passengers of being mean and belligerent. No way. Really? After locking herself in the galley and refusing to continue service, she told the captain she would call the union and then announced over the PA that the police would meet the passengers upon arrival. What? The police showed up, heard the passenger sighed, and they laughed, and they told the crew members don't use law enforcement as a threat. Good for them. You know something? You hear this stupid shit all the time.

SPEAKER_04 43:35

It doesn't happen just with passengers, it happens with crews, too.

SPEAKER_05 43:38

No, that's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_04 43:39

I know, like you know, she just like did a little pout. She was pouting. Don't don't talk harsh to me. You're mean. You're mean disrespectful, you're belligerent. You know what? I don't got time for you. I'm going to the bathroom. This is Newark. Stop it. Stop that behavior. I can't do it anymore. I'm telling the captain.

SPEAKER_05 43:58

And we're calling the authorities. I remember when the guy said I was mean. Where's your lead? Oh, he's up there. Go. It was you. It was me. I know. It was you. And he was always like, I can't wait to get away. Oh, hell no. That guy, that guy was sitting there. He dumped that shit on his lap. He dumped the damn drink on his lap and he tried to blame that young reserve flight attendant.

SPEAKER_03 44:19

Yeah, that's right.

SPEAKER_05 44:20

And I watched him dump that shit on his lap. And he came in there and started yelling at her, and I was like, oh no, you ain't doing that.

SPEAKER_04 44:26

No, stop it.

Sunlit Windows, 787 Views, And Kindness

SPEAKER_05 44:26

No, you ain't doing that. And then I was being the big meanie, right? I don't like you. I don't like you. You're mean. You're not saying nice things. Where's the lead flight attendant? Well, he's up there. Well, I'm gonna go talk to him. Go talk to him. I don't care.

SPEAKER_04 44:41

He comes talking to me.

SPEAKER_05 44:42

Hey, G, uh, G, uh, yeah, give him whatever he wants. I don't care. Because you know something? It still wasn't the flight attendant's fault. I watched him dump the shit on his own lap. Still. We get some crazy ass shit. Yeah, and and you know something? I'm the first one to apologize. If I did something wrong, if I hurt somebody, if I bumped somebody, if I did something, but when these people just they take advantage of a situation, yeah, that's just irritating.

SPEAKER_04 45:11

That's totally irritating, man. I'm just like, and and you know what? Here there's a lot of reasons when we like we do do stuff on the plane. Like I do spill shit on people. I do, you know, like we have some the seats broken or whatever happens about like that's not like we've, you know, it's our fault as a company, whatever, and all this stuff, and we usually compensate for that and all that stuff. But but when you're trying to make shit up, and then you you know, and you've done it and we know you did it. Don't be on Shawnee's like Don't be on because we're gonna get real. You're gonna get it real.

SPEAKER_05 45:44

You're just gonna get a response that that is real, right? Especially when when we seen when we seen what you did.

SPEAKER_04 45:51

But I you know in the story, back to this little story about this gal locking herself in the lab. It's like I wanna the what the details are not in the story. Like, how senior is this girl? Like, this doesn't sound like a senior flight. This sounds like a newbie.

SPEAKER_05 46:06

I don't know shit. We talked about a 39-year-old, we talked about a 39-year flight attendant, don't know shit on an international flight, so it don't have to be a newbie.

SPEAKER_04 46:16

Well, I don't I'm just um even this 39-year-old, I don't think she would act like this. Like, like to this behavior. She was just like, she was aloof. Like she was she's more like, I don't know my job. I still don't know my job after that. I don't know how she passes recurring training. You need to go talk somebody. Like in an emergency, that be ain't not gonna be my first go-to.

SPEAKER_05 46:39

They're the number one thing for a flight attendant is called de-escalation. Right. Right? Not escalation, de-escalation. Yeah, no problems in a tube. No.

SPEAKER_04 46:52

Don't pout and go in the bathroom.

SPEAKER_05 46:54

And don't call the police for something stupid.

SPEAKER_04 46:56

Yeah, don't make yourself look stupid. That's newbie.

SPEAKER_05 47:00

I don't know. You know something? If if me and you called the police, it would only be to clean up. It would because you know, okay, seriously, uh, you know, we de-escalate most of the time. All the time. Right? But if if if the police were involved after during flight, yeah, it'd be clean up. It's clean up.

SPEAKER_04 47:23

Dude, I was just talking about that.

SPEAKER_05 47:24

And we have never had that. We don't have to have that. I mean we we laugh about that, but we we've never had that. We don't have to.

Well, I've had it a couple of times. One once was the the time they had to put the guy in the handcuffs. Oh. So, like this dude, he was like, he came back to the galley and he's like, you know, uh hey, can I get some drinks? Man, I got this new hire with me. We're on a sales trip, blah, blah, blah. And I'm like, I'm like, yeah, dude, man, party on what do you what can I get you? You know, you know the routine, right? So the guy goes back to the seat, next thing you know, I'm hearing this ding, ding. I'm like, go out there, what's up? The guy's sitting there, he's punching the back of the seat. He's punching the monitors on the seat. I'm like, dude, whoa, whoa, whoa, stop. The people around him were like, This guy's not right, right? So I'm like, yo, dude, you gotta calm down. It can't be like trying to damage the equipment on the plane, chill out. I'll be okay. I'm all right. I'm like, what happened? Like, what happened from the 10 feet did you walk from the galley back to here? And now you're like beyond out of your mind. Like, I'm like, what is going on? So then I walk back, ding, ding. Here he is punching the seats again. The person in front of him, their head was like bobbing, popping up because he's banging on the seat. I'm like, dude, you gotta stop. I'm like, stop. I'm like, listen, I'm not gonna tell you again, stop. He starts punching the seat again. I'm like, all right. So I go get my ABAs. I pick this big old bodybuilder dude. I get this guy like kung fruit panda, dude. I got I got them both next to me on the thing, and it's me. And we come standing over, and I'm like, like, I'm like, okay, you got two choices the easy way or hard way. I'm like, you got the easy way? Yeah. Or you get the highway. And the guy literally slumped over and like put his wrist out. And I I grabbed those cuffs. That would be easy, sir. I grabbed those cuffs and I put the cuffs on them. And uh, you know, and he's sitting in the seat and he's now banging his head on the seat. And so I literally took the seat belt, put them together and strapped them into the chair.

SPEAKER_05 50:13

SPEAKER_04 50:17

Show up for yourself even after the setbacks, the failures, the moments when you've hit rock bottom and questioned everything, keep showing up. Not perfectly, not with all the answers, but with courage. Because every time you choose not to give up on yourself, you plant a seed for something better. Trust that you get to where you want or are meant to be. Whatever that looks like, and whatever, whenever that comes, just keep showing up. Anyhow, man. We keep showing up, don't we? We keep showing up. This has been over. I hope you keep showing up listening. This has been a crazy year. We got video coming.
