They think we're part of the decor. Meanwhile I'm counting heads like a shepherd and quietly deciding who flies and who doesn't.
Gio spent fifteen years at 35,000 feet, and she has seen it all. The guy who asks for a glass of water while she's doing the safety count on a hundred and eighty lives. The sheikh who asks her to teach him how to make his very first cup of tea in the back galley. The two strangers who wage a silent, three-hour world war over a single armrest. And herself, crying for twelve seconds behind a curtain so she can walk back out on the thirteenth with the smile still bolted on.
In Earning My Wings, the flight attendant with no filter pulls you onto her jumpseat and tells you the stuff that never makes the brochure: what the job actually is, what we swallow, and why, sore feet and stolen hotel sunrises and all, she'd put the uniform back on tomorrow.
Sharp, dry, and warm right when you don't see it coming. If you've ever flown, ever worked a job with the public, or ever wondered what the woman welcoming you aboard is really thinking, this is your boarding pass.
Buckle up. And please, do not hit the call button to ask what time it is.
