Blog-TOWER OF BABEL

So I keep getting theses yellow envelopes for peoples bank,multiple bile colored envelopes , total bounced check and returned check fees totaling 250.00. I asked the bank manager if I was going to be taken off to jail They do have lot of jails in ct. The women's jail is far worse than the mens. more bickering. probably no hormone  replacement, Xanax or tequila  there.

Being broke is sort of like a prison sentence. No freedom, no joy ,no national enquirer bought in the check out line. Now I read it and put it back. The cashier leers and says to herself, she must work for an aviation company. I used to love this aviation company, It was pristine, lovely and I was proud to be a part of its mechanisms. It will be great again too, but I cannot go back there. Too much history, like an old boyfriend, once hurt, I lie in wait for more disappointment.   It is never the same, i lay an broken woman. 

So back to talking about prison, if I did have to go. Would I have a roommate that I called Bitch? Would they pair me up with another flight attendant who wrote bad checks, or would I get a bank robber or a mass murderer? I would like the bank robber because, in this economy, i am going to need a new trade. Murder was thought of this week, but it is a messy occupation. Do they have a resume center there? Can I collect unemployment whilst living with my bitch? Can I get on Ameritrade? Do they have vegetarian fare? Church? Pilates? Coke machine? Quarters? Meditation classes? Only one phone call a day? Any thoughts?

Did you hear about the doctor from India who wanted to use the front bathroom on a Southwest flight, and was arrested. The crew thought he was going towards the cockpit, and he was pushed back into his seat, then arrested when he landed and fined 2500.00. He was 65 years old. I know we want to be safe, but situations like these are absolutely ridiculous. And it makes us look like paranoid crew members. He was profiled by the way he looked. I bet if he were 65, white haired, waspy and american, there would be no problem. Dark skin “terrorist”, a problem of society.

When I get in line for flight , I look around and see who will have more of a hard time getting thru the flight. The guy in the corner, on ipod from Sri Lanka, the woman from Africa who averts everyone's eyes, the student from turkey fishing around in his boot. sad but true.
