I rode on them once. Never have I met a woman more deserving of the

That would be Carol Bowersox I'll bet. Carol was chief stew in charge
of training and one HELL of a woman :-))
Well, they were all pretty, um, "Brooklynish".
I got a free drink on the airline due to a massive delay. whe I went up to
the Stew's station looking for another I found her slumped in her seat,
shoes off, her feet parked up on the bulkhead in front of her doing her
nails.
"May I have another G&T", says I.
"Yeh,, it's an da lockah down dere, get it yerself, two bucks" Says she.
Classy.
I also remember that whoever was driving (DC-8) was the coarsest pilot on
the stick I had ever been behind (I've met worse since) all manuevering was
done with an ey to moving the airplane as quickly as possible to the
bank/pitch desired.. It was like being in space mountain..
