Jet Blue Flight Attendant Steven Slater
The airline industry is making headlines after Jet Blue flight attendant Steven Slater cursed out a passenger, grabbed a few beers, and then exited the plane by using the emergency slide. Many on the internet are saying that he is a hero and “did what everyone always wanted to do but never did.” He sure chose a dramatic fashion to quit his job after he was fed up with a passenger who had hit him in the head while getting luggage out of the overhead bin. Some of the passengers on the plane reported seeing a gash on his head. At the end of the flight he used the PA system to unleash some curse words before exiting the plane via the chute and New York’s JFK International Airport. Other flight attendants and passengers think he is a hero and that he was standing up for abuse against flight attendants. It is being reported that Slater was a 20-year airline veteran and he is now facing criminal charges including two counts of reckless endangerment and criminal mischief. Jet Blue airways says that at no time were any passengers or crew members in danger from the incident.
