(CBS) A flight attendant fight Tuesday stalled a Chicago-bound plane for hours.
The flight was supposed to leave Memphis just after 2 p.m., but as Suzanne Le Mignot reports, a feud between employees forced the pilot to take drastic action before heading to Chicago.
“It seemed like a lot of fuss over nothing,” said Chip Romine, talking about the argument two Mesaba flight attendants had over his bag. “We were trying to put my bag in the overhead, and it was too big. One young lady came up and was trying to help me get it up, and the other lady came up and grabbed it and said, ‘I’ll take care of that.’”

Stall and aircraft should not be used about an argument on the ground.

Have you ever been on a flight where you wondered how in the world some of the flight attendants ever got hired?
What ever happened to standards?
I guess they're all "equal" now, no matter how pathetic some of them are.
It's a miracle some of them can even handle handing out pretzles much less dealing with an emergency.
On the other hand, many of the passengers today are just low class, ill mannered scum. I'm surprised that some of them can walk upright. Actually I know some chimps with better manners.

Obviously this is terrorism. If the evil Bush had never invaded Iraq there would have been no problem with this flight.

First cheerleaders in a bathroom, and now a stewardess catfight. How does a week get any better?

Moments after the dispute, the pilot decided it was best for the safety of the passengers to return to the gate and replace the crew. Sounds like by Dad when I was a kid: Quit fighting kids or I'll turn the station wagon around...
