Aku Pilih Pramugari!

Heyyo, guys!

Don't be sad if you didn't go to celebrate new year eve yesterday! I have never gone to celebrate new year for almost 17! :p. Hell yeah, I am still alive seriously. If you ask me I feel bored or not, personally It's so-so, hehe. Because I do like spending my time of being alone such as reading an article or whatever it is realted with the writing.

You'd better read my article. Who knows you'll find some benefits here :p.

Most of my friends have asked me why I choose a career as a flight attendant. I couldn't tell to them specifically. I don't wanna answer offhand that my own self have no idea. There are many people remain me that being FA (Flight Attendant) takes high risk. For example technical problem of plane causes It could fall anytime and anywhere. They say to me: "you don't need to be a FA. You'll die easily. Meh,, everytime I hear that sentence, i feel like I wanna laugh as hard. FA is always rumored with a pilot. It's not only a FA, but also women must be resentful hearing that hearsay if they are been like that. I've heard my mom's family said: " why FA? You know, FA is just like a waitress for the passengers. But the difference is she works on the air. Guys, let me tell you, as far as I knew about this job, FA is not a maid. She serves and protect the passangers from the departure to their destination. She also interacts directly with pilot if plane is ready to takeoff. Never-before, there are passangers get hungry. Who serves cuisines? A pilot? There is no Street vendor in the air, dude.

Being a FA is supposed to have a high responsibility. They couldn't be seen afraid, panic or uptight if a plane had a technically problem. They gotta be a fort to make passengers quite. Although, FA is just an ordinary woman who is afraid like them. So, do you wanna still keep saying that FA is a slave? Literally, all jobs are helping to each other. Just keep in your mind that we (human) can't live without everyone's favour. For example, a Driver takes you to your destination safetly. A Police protects his citizens from the crime. A Barber cuts your hair to look better. A Teacher teaches you to be clever. A Musician entertains you when you're sad (mostly of my friends listen a music to cheer them up). Don't judge what they're working on. But see what a contribution which they give of people.

Oiyaa.! Anyway, why do I choose FA as my job?

Guys, this is my answer to you all who asked me why I wanna be a FA. My answer is I am keen on being FA :P. Lemme tell you a story once... I was asked by my bapak (father)  about what I would be in the future then I answered, " I wanna be a Reporter or a News Anchor. I like politics". My mama suddenly said, " oh, Allah. This is gonna be dangerous. My bapak said to me, "why don't you run for stewardess"? I remembered one of Indonesia airlines whichever it's Batavia Air or Adam Air have fallen. Because of this accident, I confined my intention to be one of cabin crew. I was scared if I couldn't meet my family anymore. (Guys, that's a young girl's thought ^_^).

Tik.. Tak.. Tik.. Tak..  Times go~.

When I was in junior high, I was asked again by him. He asked me in the same question. I answered strictly and doubtlessly, " I don't wanna be a FA". Idk what satan has entered my self to say that. I definitely regret saying these words. And my mama said, "you better become a policewoman. That would be good on you". Oh, no!!! I can't be mad like Chuck Norris. As I am growing up.. I am in Senior high school. My Putih Abu-abu time. I am too active on internet in this era. I signed up Ask.Fm where you can ask anything you wanted to know to everyone. We can also ask anonymously. (Ask.Fm still be my favorite site)! I don't really remember someone who showed up in my timeline Ask.Fm. If I am not mistaken, she was Mbak Sylvi. Her full name is Sylvia Dwi Hartanti.

Sylvia Dwi Hartanti is a Fligh Attendant of Indonesia airline

  She often appeared on my timelime because her answers.Then I clicked her profile, oh, she seemed a FA! I scrolled down her post,I found her wear a uniform of that airline. Iin the next day, she posted some photos that she landed in area of Indonesia. Honestly, I am feeling jealous on FA. They can travel free but also get paid by company. I started to follow her on Ask.fm. After I am following, there are many Flight Attendants use this site. Yup, they posted some photos where they are. Seeing all that photos make me change my mind! I wanna be a FA soon. I wrote my goals to become one of cabin crew in a plane. I took a course for months to improve my skill in English. I stopped and practice on internet and books also. 

There are some many reasons why I love this job

1. REPRESENTING MY CHARACTERISTIC

Heh, first I'm very pleased there are still many people that I am friendly :P. It's true and of course I recognize it.
I saw a FA of GI (Garuda Indonesia) not only GI all FA's of airlines seemed like she has an inner beauty, manner, great and also friendly. I have been dreamed oneday I could be a model. I've liked being model since I joint a competition in kindergarten. I like models because of its clothes, lol. But, my sister told me, " if you want to be a professional model and known-well by others, you have to shave all feathers in your hands and feet". Ugh, really? I won't sacrifice mine just for that. Well, my bapak doesn't give me a permission to be a model. Because I like clothes of FA be like, I think I have 2 jobs. Being a model (model traveller) and also Flight Attendant.:p. Simple as it.

2. PRACTICING A PATIENCE
I read a book titled "Diary Pramugari" based on true story. So, there is a young girl named Jingga who worked as FA. oneday, a plane has been turbulent when she was bringing a beverage to serve a Mrs, she didn't mean to outpur it to her clothes. This Mrs. X got really angry. Jingga couldn't say anything except keep saying "sorry-sorry and sorry".
Well, If I was her, I probably would cry and get mad back at her. Meh, she's just an ordinary girl who can make mistakes anytime. A FA should keep image and smile while this accident happens. It makes me think maybe someday if this happens to me, I have to face patiently.

3. MEET NEW PEOPLE AROUND THE GLOBE
I am the typical of girl who likes to interact to new people. It doesn't mean I am (SKSD). This job also meets directly with different kind of characteristics. And also, knowing their culture is something fun!

4. PARENTS
To be honest, It sounds exaggerated. But, I realize I don't yet make my parents proud of me. I don't yet give my achievements enough to them. Which children who doesn't want to see both of parents glad?

5. BIG SALARY
Don't hypocrite if you are damn jealous of FA's income. How much they get? I can't mention in here, but I was told by my momma's friend daughter, it is more than enough. Yes, how much does it? It's enough to held wedding reception in Kemang building, lol.

6. TRAVELING FREELY
This is my favorite part, HAHA. Not only FA, but also Pilot can travel too! It's like yoi are traveling from continent to continent, country to country that you have never been before and it is free. Somebody's'dream, isn't it? :)




Well, that's my story. The point of this story is on number 1. :). I look for job which I am keen on. I like being FA and also a Reporter. Why? Like I said before, I like to meet new people around the world and alwayas KEPO in something that I haven't known before. KEPO doesn't always mean wanting to know people's problem. It  does mean in positive thing. 
If you love what you do, I am sure you won't get bored and enjoy with it. Don't think you would be paid with big salary. It won't feel you comfortable. Knowing your passion first.


I hope this article is benefit to whom are reading mine. I hope (also) you guys don't get bored as long you're reading this:P. If you wanna ask me some questions to me or feel interested in Flight Attendant, you can questioned me in my Ask.Fm @dindayse. 

Have a great day!
