Apr 1st was my one year retirement anniversary!
April Fools day - I was a fool for not leaving @ 60
& trying to wait for social security @ 65
Hence having to basically "quit"
Because I had become injured,
Couldn't walk with heel spurs
& major hip pain.
Yep Yep got old before my time...
creak creak.
I was deliriously ecstatic last year
When MY time finally came
To STOP:
The madness
The STRESS
The insanely physical (over)work
Turbulence
Terrorism alerts
Cleaning vomit
& other bodily fluids
Defibulators & oxygen
MMR CCC
The sleepless nights -
Worrying about next day sign-ins
Less pay for harder days
Divas & Dumbasses
Wake-up calls 3hrs earlier just to have
Time to load on the (kabuki)make-up & War paint
To try to hide
My Drooping
Aging
Face
Charging 900 mph up & down the aisles
Day in & day out
Kissing Ass(es)
Pleasing Psgrs
And pilots
And other FA's
And working with other not as professional FA's
(ie lazy buttholes who didn't want to work)
Having to leave home
Missing Doris
and Most of all
Not being appreciated
While fearing getting fired.
42 years of all that-
Truly amazing.
No wonder I was such a bitch!
And now that I've chilled.......
Life is Sweet!
And so is SLEEP!!!
Peace be mine.
Freedom!
Thy name is delirium.
...So wonderful.
SO blessed.

You know...this sounds morbid, but I would love to hear some of your cleaning up vomit, kissing ass flight attendant stories.
Just an idea for some good blog fodder...
