I flew to and from Santa Barbara with the UC Davis crew. We had a wonderful time. We flew in and out of the Bob Hope Airport in Burbank CA.
The interesting thing about the Bob Hope Airport is when you exit/enter the plane, you walk off/on of the plane-- there is no terminal, just stairs off of the plane.
On our return flight home, I was boarding the plane with my collages. Upon climbing the stairs, I tripped and fell up the stairs.
The flight attendant came out and asked if I was ok.
With my pride a bit hurt, I told her I was fine. I also told her that I have always wanted to be a flight attendant (which is the truth... if I was not working in the University, I would totally be a flight attendant -- how fun would that be?!)
So I looked at her name tag and asked Chasity if I could help her pass out the peanuts because I feel up the stairs.. I knew it was a long shot, but I thought I would try.
SHE AGREED!! :)
So, after we took off, she put me in an apron and I became a Southwest Flight Attendant.
I passed out peanuts and pretzels.
(this is Chasity and I - she came to my rescue when I fell)
(PEANUTS?? PRETZELS??)
Here is the rest of the crew:
(Christy, Me, Chasity, and Casey -- they are Las Vegas flight crew)
(Crazy pose)
we has so much fun..
it was a nice break from life -- flying at 13,000 ft in the air!!
Thanks Southwest! :)

My dad works for Southwest. He says that the flight crew is allowed to be much more relaxed than any other airline. As long as they hit all the important stuff in their preflight spiel, they have free rein. I had a flight where the male attendant rhymed the whole thing.
Good job, you look like you fit right in.
