True Story.....


Just got in from work a little while ago and wanted to share a funny story I thought about.....years ago I worked as a flight attendant for a small airline called " Nationair" they were stationed in Montreal Canada. Although, our training was in Montreal and I lived there for 3 months, most of the flights I worked flew directly out of Toronto.
Well on one particular flight we were serving drinks, and I honestly can't remember where we were going..the flight was full and the turbulence began. Across the speaker came the pilot " Ladies and gentlemen we will be experiencing some slight turbulence for the next few minutes please sit down and buckle your seat belts" shortly after his message our phone rang in the back warning of the upcoming turbulence. We only had 3 rows left to serve drinks to so we decided let's hurry up before it gets too bad! So there I was with one last drink a simple glass of coke with ice to deliver to a gentlemen and as I leaned over his head with my tray it happened............turbulence! Before I could do anything I saw it like it was in slow motion the glass (plastic cup) filled to the top started falling off my tray! Oh my goodness, now what!! Too late!! YIKES!! There sat the now EMPTY glass of Coke and ice on a man's bald head! I gasped as he turned and looked at me coke dripping down his face! He was not a happy camper!
I stumbled to find napkins, started vigorously rubbing his bald head, OMG now it got worse the napkins were sticking to his head! All the while a lady sitting directly behind him was laughing hysterically! I kept giving her the look "like "lady this isn't funny" I am totally embarrassed and this guy looks like he is gonna kill me! Please "STOP" was all I kept thinking!
So then one of my fellow flight attendant's sees my distress runs and gets a warm cloth to dampen his shirt and pants with...she hands it to me I go to set it in his hand and "BAM" more turbulence I try to catch myself and instead find myself in yet another predicament! In order to break my fall my hand landed well in his "seat" yes right into his crotch my hand went! By this time, the woman behind him was crying in laughter she was uncontrollable, and he was even less amused! Finally I managed to compose myself and apologized to that poor man over and over...he never smiled or accepted my apology;(

It wasn't until the passengers were getting off the plane that the woman whispered into my ear "honey that's the funniest thing I have ever seen happen to my husband, thanks for the laugh I needed that"

Hope you enjoyed the story;) Definitely one of my most embarrassing moments!
