==================

Even worse is how bad flight attendant pay ( and even pilot pay as of 
recent ) is in comparison to their responsibilities. If a Anesthesiologist 
making $ 300k screws up in the OR, the worst thing that can happen is one 
person dies. If a flight crew member screws up , hundreds of people could 
die.  Who really deserves the $ 300,000 salaries more?
