Steven Slater better enjoy his 15 miuntes and get the most he can from it. He's headed for the unemployment line and won't be working in the airline industry any time soon. Maybe you heard of his tarmac tirade

Love him and what he did. I can't imagine anyone not secretly or publicly applauding him.

Unfortunately rude and abusive people often are the employers not just the public.

His perfect dream quit scenario of Fuck off, beer & bag grab and slide down the chute are beyond fantastic. I think (hope & wish) he'll manage just fine.

You could have flagged me on my homophone error but I think you did in the kindest way.

I could have used a couple of beers and an escape chute last night, but there's no one here to berate on the way down.

I'm glad I was kind, ;-), but didn't catch any error...

You know, it's really a hoot. I deal with the public constantly.

But it's not my clients who drive me batshit, it's a select few of my co-workers, and in particular, my boss.

Whom I just told today - in politic terms, of course - to fuck off and leave me alone so I can get real work done.

I bet flight attendants around the world are smiling privately or over a drink with coworkers. They should all chip in $1 for this guy.

His name will be used every time a flight attendant gets angry. "Don't go Slater on us."

You can see the light at the end of the tunnel on your job. I can sense it.

I hope to hell you're right.
