Duh!

Get with the programme.

You think you're the only airline that conducts
swim tests? Think again. When I was in secondary school, all the girls who thought they were good looking aspired to be a flight attendant for a local airline I shall not name.

When I was 16 (16, mind you, which is eons ago) we'd hear stories of how older sisters took those swim tests. And yes, they were oogled. And yes, those that couldn't swim were told to come back and try again when they could.

Then again, for said airline, we all knew you weren't hiring based on brains. And this is an open secret when you have little gems that abound, such as the classic "Sir, would you like some sauce on your balls?"


She meant meatballs. Enough said.

Hey Fi,
I never knew you had to be able to swim to become a flight attendent.
I guess it would make sense huh
