Looks like being a cabin crew is so interesting and learn a lot...see the picture showing the wet drill, so excited... i have never thought of there would have such fun in this job. anyway, do you guys think it's an ideal career to pursue?

after 5 years can do wat huh?

if you're a male cabin crew, don't think you'd get lots of action ...
your female colleagues would rather go for the chaps in the cockpit than a flying waiter ....

waiter
but on the ground -
senior waiter?

It's all fun and games being a member of the cabin crew... until something like SQ 006 comes along.

degrees are like so cheap these days...
i think it's harder to find an "O" level dropout than a uni grad...
-
U don't need a degree...
U just have to know how to say "Tea, Coffee...or me"...haha
Anyway, it is a job that basically allow you to travel around for a while...but as a career...I dun think you can amount to much.
This is also a job that need you to like serving people...which I dun...because I think I like to be served and be serving :)
-
To be frank... It is very siong one. Must smile all the time...

money is not too bad.. if u take a look at their rosters, they only work abt 100-200 odd days per yr...

anything is fun. if you perceive it to be, that is.

with shifts lasting up to 18 or 20 hours?

its fun at the start, travelling to new places.
then it becomes a chore
then u need to join some ECAs or something like the music department to make things a little bit more interesting
otherwise the cabin crew attrition rate is quite high.
because even my friend feels that sometimes he forgets to switch on his brain after flying, so its not good
