I fly a LOT for work, and i always liked flying as a kid/young adult. I thought i liked the whole experience (airports, people watching, flying, being in new cities, etc) until i had to do it for work, and they all started blending together. Every airport felt the same. Every city felt the same (it didnt help that all of my work facilities were in very affluent areas and all of the shops/stores/restaurants were extremely similar if not the same). About a year in , for some reason, every bit of turbulence started to really freak me out. It had never bothered me before. But i started to get really scared, and it didnt help that i was flying A LOT. Then one day, something strange happened. I was on a flight that had a lot of turbulence. I felt like i couldn’t take it anymore. I was not doing well on that flight. I thought about quitting this job, which was by far my best paying job i had ever had. And then i saw it. It was right there the whole time. In plain view, EVERY SINGLE FLIGHT.

The flight attendants.

They were doing drink service. Pouring drinks and handing them over passengers three seats away while the plane was bouncing all over the place. They didn’t react negatively in any way. It was business as usual.

At that moment i realized, if they were that calm, and able to continue doing their job, i had absolutely nothing to worry about.

So the next time you’re on a flight and are anxious or scared, just look at those beautiful people in uniform. They do this shit every day. If they are calm, there is nothing to worry about.

My wife gets furious when i try to talk penalties/offsides when watching the games. Hahaha. Glad to know im not the only one.

I say it all the time... I think the professional Womens leagues should be in the spring/summer. This way they are not competing with the NHL/AHL/juniors, and gives hockey fans something to watch during the summer.
