Have you read about the Flight Attendant who apparently got fed up and quit in a very dramatic way?
You can read about it here: http://www.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/08/09/new.york.escape.chute.opened/index.html?hpt=C1
It looks like a passenger was trying to get up and retrieve his bag in the overhead before the pilot gave the all clear sign and the plane was still taxiing. From other articles I've read the passenger hit the flight attendant in the head with the bag or shoved him and the flight attendant had finally had enough.
And I mean enough. He announced some curse words to the passenger on the intercom and said some other explicit words for the world to hear and then said, "I'm outta here" and popped the hatch, blew the inflatable slide and out he went.
They arrested him at his home and he had this smile of a man who had done what he wanted when he wanted and felt that sweet release.
I personally think this guy should be let go and some folk songs sung about him. I've dealt with the public and, frankly, I think what he did is freakin' awesome.
I've been there. He has given hope to all who have had to bite their tongues with @$$holes because they have no choice.
