Jacaylbaro Posted August 11, 2010 This is Steve Slater, and he's a hero on Facebook. Why? Well most of his fans say it's because he did what they would love to do. Steve was a flight attendant on Jetblue Airlines until Monday. He dramatically quit his job after a rude passenger abused him on board while the plane was at JFK. Apparently, a female passenger went to take her bag down when passengers were still supposed to be in their seats, and when confronted, hit Steve on the head with her case. She verbally abused him too. It was the final straw for Steve. He said so over the PA system and then took two beers, activated the emergency slide and slid down to unemployment. He has been bailed out of jail for $2500 and is now facing potentially 7 years in jail for 'criminal mischief' and 'criminal endangerment' Should he be punished or lauded? Here's a common refrain on his Facebook page from Mike B Awesome man, would have done the same, hope it brings you fame and fortune, know what you went thru, dont blame you for a minute. And the memory of voicing yourself will be a happy one the rest of your life. GREAT EXIT. hope you enjoyed the beers . One other case also in the news today, but the jury is still out whether it's a hoax or not. Office worker 'Jenny' quit and took revenge on her sexist boss by outing his unproductive work habits (playing hours of Farmville for example) by writing messages on dry-erase boards and then photographing and mailing them around to 20 other employees. Here's a link to the photos. BBC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
