Flying by the seat of my pants

the long version

Take a look at life from behind the beverage cart."They asked me to be groomed, be kind, and show up on time; it was too much pressure.""It was like being a waitress, only I was hurtling through space and wound up in Paris.""I thought it would be funny to climb into the overhead bin. How did I know the President of the United States would be on the flight that day?"Where flight attendant Marsha Marks goes, funny things happen, and she tells them all in this hilarious and insightful chronicle of her career as a naive flight attendant and a struggling author. From missed flights to missing uniforms, miracle babies to indecipherable southern accents, Flying by the Seat of My Pants is a laugh-out-loud reminder of what is important and what keeps us steady through the turbulence of life.From the Trade Paperback edition.
