Working as a flight attendant may seem like the dream job for many. After all, you get to travel the world while being paid for it \u2014 what could go wrong? But a survey conducted by The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, AFL-CIO (AFA) found some shocking statistics surrounding how often flight attendants have to deal with unruly passengers. 85% percent of flight attendants were found to have dealt with at least one unruly passenger in 2021, and 60% had encountered at least five incidents in the same year. Not to mention 17% of flight attendants reported incidents that ultimately became physical. Now one flight attendant has taken to TikTok to share her own terrifying experience that led beyond the confines of a plane and followed her home\u2026 Elizabeth Braley, who goes by \u2018elizabethbraley4\u2019 on TikTok, recounted the incident while sitting in her car, uniform still on and her eyes puffy from crying. \u201cThis red sedan pulls in front of my Jeep and, like, cut me off like with no notice \u2014 like literally was at the front of my car,\u201d she said. \u201cSo I got into another lane because like she\u2019s driving crazy.\u201d However, the sedan continued to pursue Elizabeth, following her into whichever lane the terrified flight attendant took. \u201cShe was like literally trying to like run me off the road and we\u2019re going 80 miles an hour\u2026 And I was like, \u2018OK, screw this. I\u2019m getting all the way to the right,\u2019\u201d Elizabeth said, revealing the sedan then pulled up beside her and shouted obscenities. Elizabeth recounted tearfully, \u201cShe goes, \u2018F*** your airline\u2019 and starts throwing s*** out of her car and it\u2019s, like, hitting the side of my car.\u201d Noting that American Airlines was \u201cstruggling with operations right now,\u201d Elizabeth asked viewers to understand that \u201cI have nothing to do with that. I just work for them\u2026 and we are so tired too, but like, really? I just don\u2019t get why people are so cruel sometimes.\u201d In a follow-up video, Elizabeth thanked viewers for their support and admitted she \u201ccouldn\u2019t really react to get plates or call the cops\u201d in the heat of the moment. \u201cMoral of the story and like the point of posting that video was to just be kind because we as flight attendants do not have control over operations,\u201d Elizabeth said. \u201cWhen we\u2019re sitting in the airport for a delay, we\u2019re not getting paid. When we\u2019re boarding, we\u2019re not getting paid\u2026 we\u2019re just people too.\u201d For all the latest entertainment news, be sure to check out our page here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
