Stripping Stewardess Video: Should they be Fired?

by Mary Jo Manzanares on February 9th, 2008

Do you ever wonder about what happens in the cockpit on those long, long flights?

According to this video (not entirely safe for work), and stories circulating in the European press, the answer to that question is. . . . stripping!

While much discussion is swirling about whether or not this is a hoax, it’s been widely reported as being “under investigation” by the airline involved, who promises disciplinary action for all parties involved.

What do you think?  Should stripping be a firing offense?

NOTE:  This is not intended to denigrate the tough job that Flight Attendants perform day in, day out.  They are safety professionals, responsible for the lives of hundreds of passengers every day, and deserve our respect.  If this is a hoax, just enjoy the humor.  If it’s for real, it’s a good reminder that in every profession you’ll find people who choose not to exercise good judgment.  Enjoy the humor in that.

    I just viewed the video…and though I hope it is not real it is pretty scary if it is real. Here is hoping that is not happening on my flight back home in a few months!!

    There’s plenty of other things they could be doing that would be more scary. For me the issue is that they are daft enough to video it and let that video out of their sight. I’d certainly want someone more intelligent flying the plane!

    I’m just off to dinner with a pilot and two Air Marshals from the RAF - I’ll ask them…

    I think there are people in EVERY profession who don’t always use common sense or follow proper etiquette. Some folks don’t know how to turn off their silliness when company time begins.
