Flight Attendant

I was struck yesterday at church by how similar it is to be flight attendant and the person who starts our worship off with announcements. The announcement giver welcomes everyone and then points out the cards in the racks to be filled out by visitors. She points in the direction of the nursery and the atrium if there is anything interesting going on there. Well, there is always something interesting going on in the nursery but not always in the atrium. I was waiting for Sarah, who did the announcements yesterday, to tell us that in the event of an emergency that the oxygen masks would drop from the ceiling and if you were with a small child to put your oxygen mask on first and then put it on the child. Sorry, just a funny observation.

...and in the event of a water landing, rip those rediculous seat pads off and use them as a floatation device...

sorry, should have been spelled "REEE - diculous" as opposed to "ridiculous"

What's with the advertizing killing the buzz on your comments?

Does the announcer stand at the exit and wave and say "Bye now. Ba-bye. Bye Now.?"

Hi Julie! I was reading through this post and thought of a gal at our church who actually is a flight attendant and does our announcements from time to time. She actually makes fun of her profession. Everyone gets a good giggle and it's a great start to a blessed day!
