Take This Job And Shove It

[phantom power]

It seems the new folk heroes are those who quit their jobs in a dramatic and spectacular way. I'm starting to sense echoes of the 70s, when a surly fuck-the-establishment attitude was starting to rise up. Ultimately Reagan channeled that and the rest is history.

1. I want his job; I'll put up with the riff raff for a paycheck. nt

4. Are you serious? You can probably get hired. They aren't paid that well

The hours are horrible
You can't have a personal life for the first 5 years

And the passengers are RUDE. And you can't do shit about it.

I wouldn't want their job.

5. xultar, I'm unemployed,

have been looking since November, and have had exactly 2 callbacks.

Yea, I'd take it, but I'm undoubtedly too old.

8. What about an airline gate or ticket agent! My mom did that for years

you get the flying benefits and everything.

I'm sorry to hear that you are unemployed. Where are you. If I hear of anything good I'll pm you. Hey,what area do you live in?

7. Fuck Yea!

I read the details and this guy had every right to say fuck off to the establishment...
Not only did he have a lot on his personal plate, but if you think about how flight attendants have been collectively shit on, just as much as us passengers...probably more.

I would've grabbed the tequila though! ;)
