When you consider that they only work 12-15 days per month and have SPECTACULAR free/low cost travel perks, they're downright overpaid.

The other side of the story is that they are away from home 12-15 days a month, are stuck in plane for 8+ hours a day when working, and don't get paid when there is a delay (at least that's what a United stewardess told me).

As with any job, it has it's benefits, but to suggest the worker-bees in any industry are overpaid is just silly.

If you want "overpaid" look at the salaries of senior managers and the like.

Should lever-pulling longshoremen in LA get an average salary of $120,000.00 a year?

Not suggesting those "worker bees" are overpaid. Stating it, as fact.

So what's the average salary of these Flight attendants, and what are the hours, shifts, and what are the perks?

Gee, somehow, we don't see this. Just percentages.

Show me the money!
