    I think the summary that I got from this is that at the end of the day you are grateful for this job, because it allows you to work to live rather than live to work. Love it !

    I don't think that you seem negative, just realistic. That's great for people who want to have a peek into what your career is really like. I enjoy seeing a view into a lifestyle that is very different from my own.

    I’ve been subscribed to your channel for some time now and I never got the impression that you hated the job. Actually matter fact I will be starting training in less than a month and I have to say your videos helped me set realistic expectations of the job as well as be excited for it! So thanks a bunch and enjoy the road trip ❤

    Kelly, it made perfect sense. Whatever negativity there is reflects that there ARE negative aspects to the lifestyle for sure. You are just reflecting on that. Everybody in the 9 to 5 conforming workplace makes innumerable negative comments every day about this and that. Work is tolerated to provide the means to do more fun things. You give us reality snd with a fantastic bit of irony snd humor in your intonations of your voice. Do NOT change a thing. Your friend, Herman (who is from L.A. (Echo Park)

    The flight benefits and ability to work around your schedule are totally worth any negatives of the job. I will be starting my journey soon after my youngest graduates. I'll take any good, bad and ugly for free flights and not being chained to a desk 40 hours a week.

    I love how people will comment that someone doesn't like their job from watching a vlog from someone that's trying to get their job done. I mean, it's work. There's gonna be times you don't like what you have to do despite loving your job. Keep up the good work. I don't think you're negative at all. It's refreshing to see someone be honest with what they do.

    First - I love the classic Billy Joel T-shirt!
    Don't let the naysayers get you down. You've been dealing with a challenging summer of travel, so it's very reasonable that you aren't all 'sunshine and rainbows' about your job. I'd much rather have a real insight into your experience than to have you faking it. Your job is difficult even when everything is going exactly as it should, which hasn't been the case that often these past couple months. I follow a number of FA vloggers, and yours is one of my top three favorites (and I don't have those three ranked, so consider it a tie for first place!)
    Anyway, I hope the car works out, and you had a great roadtrip!

    You are my favorite FA to watch. I love your sense of humor and I’ve never thought you complain, I get it that we all like to spend time at home and be with family etc. But you gotta work! I should be in training soon with JSX as an FA. I’m looking forward to it. Love your show! Keep ‘em coming.

    Wow! I've never thought you didn't like your job, it seems like to me you love it.
    What I like is you don't try to make it look all glamorous, you keep it real.
    The vloggers I can't relate to are the ones who obviously do it to look pretty and give the impression that it is all glamorous. The glamorous part is the travel perks, but it's a job too...
    I haven't even used any of my travel perks yet , but that's the main reason for the job. I always wanted to just be a flight attendant and work on a plane, so for me, Allegiant is great.
    But it's so obvious you enjoy what you do. But as I said it's a job.
    Here at g4 if we leave as long as it's under 30 days we can come back.
    I do sometimes think the layovers would be great, but G4 is ok, been here almost 2 years.
    I hate RESERVE THOUGH
    Again, your my favorite vlogger because your real...your down to earth, you don't try to look glamorous, ( though you always look really great don't get me wrong) but alot of vloggers do it fir the attention. You don't come across that way at all.
    You remind me alot of me.
    Keep up the vlogs

      Hahahahahahah! Well, you win with me! Flying post Covid is especially hard! I am reentering next month and I am like “do I really wanna do this?” Cos pre 2020 was sooo different. But the flight benefits are 💯 and a huge perk. I watch an Australian FA on YT and they don’t get free flights with her airlines. They only get discounted tickets HOWEVER they are paid from check in to check out so maybe that is a better trade? I really don’t know hahaha

    I would say most Flight Attendants have been a little “negative” lately. I take that more as a reflection of the work vibes, not the people. It seems summer flying is taking its tole on you guys. It’s nice to see an intentionally positive video though!

    What I would like to know if why airlines can't manage to keep wheelchairs safe for disabled passengers. I am an ambulatory wheelchair user and I will never fly in the future because I'm scared that my $3000 plus mobility aid that I depend on will get lost or damaged, and that can be expensive! Plus airlines never do anything to really help the who loses their chair or can't use it anymore.
