| Flight attendant slides away! Has anyone seen this story today? FOXNews.com - Flight Attendant Flips Out, Makes Sliding Exit at JFK I have to say I found it quite amusing reading the story and comments while drinking my morning coffee!

| Yep, I saw it. If he worked for the airlines for 28 years, I totally *get* why he did that. Working with the public can really test your patience.

I wish someone caught it on audio and video, that would have been something to witness!

| Exactly! This incident may have pushed him over the edge, but you know it was years in the making!

| No doubt! I worked as a waitress and also a bartender many moons ago and can tell you that it is not always fun having to be polite to rude people. I went back to school so that I did not have to stay stuck in an industry where people think that people who serve the public are fair game.

I don't have the patience to be nice to rude people anymore! Not that I could do what he did, but I always giggle at the thought of people who do have the guts to do it!

| I heard he is facing up to 7 years jail time... For what? I don't know.. Because I would have done the same thing that is more time than Lindsey Lohan and she could have killed someone...

| I agree...totally ridiculous. I don't think he will ever get that, though. A good attorney should be able to get him off. At least I should hope so. I agree with you, Lindsey Lohan was a danger to herself and others.

It is NOT easy! He will get off....he got hit in the head, remember! Plus, his mother has been ill with cancer, so he was stressed anyway. I am so sure the attorney will have a great case with this one. I don't see how public support will help in a legal case. He has lots of support, but the law is the law.
