Thumbs down Is this someone on here with a CR?

Fed-up Flight Attendant curses passenger on Public address system and exits using the emergency exit




^ Wondering if this is one of us. Just saw this on New York Times. The article contained a link to pictures and one of the pictures is the one you see above.

Does anyone know, if its someone on here

On Monday, on the tarmac at Kennedy International Airport, a JetBlue attendant named Steven Slater decided he had had enough, the authorities said.

After a dispute with a passenger who stood to fetch his luggage too soon on a full flight just in from Pittsburgh, Mr. Slater, 38 and a career flight attendant, got on the public-address intercom and let loose a string of invective.

Then, the authorities said, he pulled the lever that activates the emergency-evacuation chute and slid down, making a dramatic exit not only from the plane but, one imagines, also from his airline career.

Dude knows how to quit a job.

You'll probably have to go visit him in jail.

So it looks like CR really stands for Chute Racer.

Flipping out, Check. Beer, Check. Awesome escape, Check. Getting laid before getting caught, Check. This dude knows how to go out in style.

If I wasn't at work I'd toast to this guy.

Dunno why anyone who loses his chit over essentially NOTHING should be admired...

Big points for dramatic exit, though
