The JetBlue flight attendant was pushed over the edge when a passenger started going for her luggage in the overhead bin the moment the flight’s wheels skittered on the tarmac at JFK. He warned her to sit down. She refused with an expletive as her bag hit him in the head. Slater demanded an apology. She refused. And then -- this is where it gets good -- Slater got on the public address system to say, "To the f*****g a**hole who told me to f*** off, it's been a good 28 years... I've had it. That's it.” He then grabbed his bags, a couple of beers, opened the emergency exit, slid down the ramp, ran across the tarmac to his car and drove home. He later was arrested on charges of “reckless endangerment,” “trespassing” and “criminal mischief.”I guess the man can kiss that badge good bye, besides he is in one heck of trouble, since the police really threw the book at him. I, for one, will be happy to contribute to his defense fund.
I hope that he, at least, had time to enjoy these beers. That's it.
