They think it’s all glamorous. But lemme tell you the facts of a day in a flight attendant's life.
They think it’s all glamorous. But lemme tell you the facts of a day in a flight attendant’s life.
These trolley ‘dollies’ are the best looking things you have seen since you walked into that airport. And you are single and all set to see them again on flight. Well! Let me introduce you to the first one. She is Chinese and has left her 3 year old son back home 5000 kms away in Shanghai, along with her heart.
The second one out there has an annoying boyfriend who’d call her the minute her phone switched on because he is an insecure creep. And that young pretty thing there is just out of college chasing her dreams and wishing to go globe trotting while working as a flight attendant.
Now let’s turn the tables and see what they think of you when they look at a good looking eye candy like you.
The first one is still thinking of her baby…it’s like as if her brain’s back there too, with her baby. The second one looks at you, even notices you, but then that fear grips her where she can picture you having a fist fight with her over possessive boyfriend. And the third one, she’s a free bird, young, single and is even throwing some hints at you and probably it could be your lucky night.
But you need to realise that by the time they land it’ll be almost 18 hours from the time she left her house and they are just waiting to get out of this pressurised environment and breath some fresh air and catch some peaceful sleep. She is not just a trolley dolly, she flies with brave wings, big dreams and is your only hope in the sky if something happens to you.

People say that women are the greatest enemies of women. I vehemently disagree. It is the patriarchal mindset that makes women believe in the wrong ideology.
The entire world celebrates International Women’s Day on March 8, 2024. It should be a joyful day, but unfortunately, not all women are entitled to this privilege, as violence against women is at its peak. The experience of oppression pushes many women to choose freedom. As far as patriotism is concerned, feminism is not a cup of tea in this society.
What happens when a woman decides to stand up for herself? Does this world easily accept the decisions of women in this society? What inspires them to be free of the clutches of the oppression that women have faced for ages? Most of the time, women do not get the chance to decide for themselves. Their lives are always at the mercy of someone, which can be their parents, siblings, husband, or children.
In some cases, women do not feel the need to make any decisions. They are taught to obey the patriarchal system, which makes them believe that they are right. In my family, I was never taught to make decisions on my own. It was always my parents who bought dresses and all that I needed.
It is shameful that in today's world too, women are abused and even killed for giving birth to a girl, and the infant's life is also of no value.
Trigger Warning: This deals with domestic violence, suicide, and violence against women, and may be triggering to survivors.
I am so glad that the esteemed courts are now giving the much-required verdicts regarding certain ideologies that were not at all entertained earlier. I mean we all have studied this much biology at our school level and it is our duty (our generation) to educate our elders about it.
Why someone have to lose a life to bring such awareness to the society. Delhi High Court gave this judgement concerning a case that filed by the deceased daughter’s parents against her in-laws. She committed suicide as she was harassed and tortured for dowry and giving birth to two daughters.
