Guest guest Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 A Full and Complete Stop By HansonA little while ago, I was on a flight back home from a business trip.After the aircraft landed and was taxiing toward the gate, the head steward goton the PA system and began the oft-repeated speech about destinations, gate locations and the service people waiting to help you.Then, as the plane approached the gate, some passengers looked restless, and itappeared as if they were about to stand up.Seeing this, the steward announced, " We have invested a lot of money to ensure that your flight has been safe and comfortable. We are also looking for ways tosave money, and this aircraft is participating in a new experiment. To reducecosts, we are asking for volunteers to help clean the cabin upon our arrival. Those wishing to volunteer for cabin clean-up, please stand up before we come toa full and complete stop. " Not a single passenger left his or her seat until we were at the gate, and theseat belt sign was turned off. http://www.chickensoup.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
