Flying in the face of more modern trends in the industry, Air India have got medieval on their Cabin Crew staff introducing many new laws they have to obey that include - no moustaches, no overweight or unattractive people, no facial markings, scars, birthmarks or blemishes and no one who was alive when the Beatles were still making records. As for the male members of crew they seam to be equally heavily restricted :-)

Jeez - if all the worlds’ airlines operated like that, three quarters of the BA, Qantas, Lufthansa and American fleets would be grounded!

There was this carnie at the show in Brissy once, he was SOOOO good at being a carnie, the bleeper made me waste all my money on his damn game because he kept making the deal so much sweeter, like "if you get the next three balls in i'll give you a big toy or $20" then "ok you missed those, but i'll give you five balls for $5 and if you get four of them in i'll give you $50". It just kept going and going and before I knew I had no money and still couldn't get any of the balls in. I think he deserved my money for being such a good salesman.... well thats what I keep telling myself anyway...

dont you know that the thing you try to get the basket balls into such as the hoop the hoops smaller than the ball and if your trying to get the balls into the milk can the hole is designed not to let it in (i had a friend that used to own those).. you should have found a cute one to get free rides.. lol

Hey, I wouldn't even need a fake beard... and as long as I marry the hairiest man alive I should be set for a career of slack jawed gawkers.

Who determines beauty? If you were perfect, you would not need a career in the airlines. I have friends who are stews here in Calif and they practically starve themselves to look great. I kind of like the scruffy look of a couple of days growth on a man's beard. Some guys need mustaches and beards to hide what is under there. No one told Marilyn Monroe or Cindy Crawford that there moles made them ugly.

Ditto!!!

I agree - my boyfriend Jake looks wickedly gorgeous with a bit of stubble, and while still being gorgeous without it, I feel like I am dating a school boy!!

Yes, but the real question is ... will you smooch with the cheese grater face?

My beard is tough, with a capital 'T,' and even has a bit of an attitude.

Speaking of ... where is that 'Trivial things that wind you up' thread ... got a few things to get off my chest ...

I know that when I am deciding which airline to fly with, the appearance of the staff is my number one priority. After that comes cost/value for money, comfort/legroom, service, and oh probably a bit trivial, but the number of times they tend to crash into mountains. But as long as I can stare at a good looking flight attendant as we go down in flames, it isn't that important.

I for one am gald to see Air India have their priorities straight!

I certainly agree, I mean, who CARES if I have to pay twice as much, as long as I have a hottie to stare at? That would make my extra hundreds worth it, I just know it.

As for the cheese grater thang his hair isn't all that painfully spiky!! And he doesn't have a moustache so it's really not scratchy at all. Once though, I was going out with this guy who had some SERIOUS sandpaper action going, if he hadn't shaved that morning or evening I'd end up with my cheeks all red and scratched!! NOT FUN!! With that guy I didn't kiss if he hadn't shaved lol...
