Sally has a problem - actually, a few problems, cynicism being one of them. Ignorance is another, so let me change that.
Each Flight Attendant is responsible for a main door in an emergency. When we used to have enought F/A's, there could be a F/A at the window exit, but now that we are flying with minimum crews, it's not possible. We are not superwomen, able to be in 2 places at once. You, as a passenger, are given the option of taking the responsibility (and sitting in the roomier and more comfortable exit row) or changing seats. When you refused that responsibility, the F/A should have made you move. I would have. The airline tells me to do that, it's not my choice. Sally, you're selfish and self-centered. We do not say things like this to hear the sound of our own voices, nor to be abused by you. If you had any maturity at all, you would understand that. Yes, I'm there to serve you drinks. No, I don't put "bottles in (my) bag". I also get to make serious and life-saving decisions on a regular basis. Please God you are never in a situation where you will have to look to one of us to save YOUR life. It would change your outlook.
