Being a Flight Attendant is not a bad idea…if you really want info e-mail me…http://www.theflyingpinto.com/

It’s extremely flexible and I’ve traveled everywhere! I’ve been flying for 16 years, and now I have a 2 year old and her life is filled with travel.

I’ve been a little behind on my reader, but just wanted to let you know I’ve been thinking of you since I saw you made the unemployment list. I know it sucks, but I’m glad you’ve got a lot of positivity going on. It’s kind of an exciting time and you can go do whatever you want to pursue. Hope you find something you LOVE.

Hang in there… Enjoy the good attitude while it lasts and the moment to regroup, breathe, and decide where to head. And as someone in HR, always happy to give a quick read to anything if you need an extra pair of eyes. As far as connections, I have a friend who’s a flight attendant with Southwest if you need a contact to give you some ideas or bounce things off of. I know it was really hard for her though getting started because they basically put you in as permanently on call at first. She’s been doing it, gosh, four years now? I think she’s still not on a set schedule.

I think you have a wonderful attitude about this because I know if I were in your shoes, I would be really bitter. And unhappy, though somewhat relieved because I would have a new opportunity in front of me.

You’re going to make it happen, whatever is meant to be. And we’ll all be here cheering you on.

Have you thought about- working at a university so that you can get a graduate degree for free?

What about an MPA? I want to do that… and I think you can do alot with that degree.

I am also awesome at editing things…so let me know if you need help. There’s always the DOUBLE HUSKY scholarship, which I think you can complete online too

My mom was a flight attendant for 18 years and says it’s the best thing she’s ever done. Except, you know, give birth to me

I don’t have advice on being a flight attendant or freelancer but I do work in the Gov. Relations of a trade association and I do know a lot of people in the area.

If you ever need your resume circulated, or you want me to take a look at your resume (I worked on professional resumes for 2 years)…shoot me an email. I’m always looking to help people because I had no one helping me with my job search…so I know how rough it is, esp in DC.

But you have the absolute best attitude about this and that will go a long way

You have the right attitude. Just have faith that you’ll find something that you love, and don’t settle for less than that!

Wishing you all the best!

My cousin (who just happens to live in the DC area) was a flight attendant with frontier for awhile. Could totally hook you up with her for advice on that…I’ve always thought it would be a cool profession, especially if you got to do international travel. I think my cousin probably had a love/hate relationship with it, but she always had good stories!!
