What is the dark side of being an airhostess?

Your holistic time changes means you need to get up at a time which your flight demands. If your flight is 3 in the morning you need to report at 2. Sometimes the flight times are odd like 3 in midnight. It is really disturbing at times because this profession disturbs your sleeping pattern
You don't get much holidays means there are no specific holidays example in a normal business there is holiday on Sunday but in aviation business you don't get holidays on specific day or festivals like Diwali , holi or raksha bandan. (You get sick leaves in aviation but for specific leaves you need to report earlier )
Sometimes the passengers get too aggressive with air hostess. Example I saw in a interview where a passenger asked for a drink multiple times. Air hostess catered to her need but when she knew she can't provide more drink to passenger. She denied but the passenger behaved aggressively shouting at air hostess.
Air hostess have to become guardian for passengers till air hostess are in flight. If any passenger falls sick or anything major happens than air hostess are responsible to handle it.
Sometimes passengers try to misbehave with air hostess as well. Passengers sometimes stare at air hostess in vulgar way.
Air hostess had to listen to passengers when they press call button. Sometimes passengers prank with air hostess by pressing the yellow call light again and again.
Further there is huge importance of dress code in aviation business that air hostess need to strictly abide by. Air hostess make up, hairstyles, code of conduct everything comes as a part of their job.
Last but not the least air hostess need to maintain decorum in the plane. They need to serve food at specific intervals , clean the mess of food. And also provide water when the passengers wants.

There are various perks of being air hostess like good income , travelling for free , reservation of hotels but everything has pros and cons

Did you accidentally see something on someone's phone that you shouldn't have seen?

Not on mobile, but on laptop. I have a female friend who was new to the city in those days and lived alone in a flat. I met her in college. We often used to meet, chat a lot and then go on weekends due to our good friendship. Once I reached to meet her. She had made pakodas, etc., we ate and started talking. In talk, she told that her laptop has become defective, and asked me where to fix the laptop. Since I had experience of computer software, I started to find out the disease of the laptop itself. After investigation, I suggested that it would be better if the software is formatted and re-inserted into the computer. She obeyed me. Before formatting the laptop's hard disk, we both sat together and started backing up the necessary files. Finally I started to open the recycle bin and what I saw there were very personal things: There were a lot of nude and semi-nude pictures of her, in which she took photos while trying out some new underwear. It was not right to look in front of her...

What do all UPSC toppers have in common?

Common attributes of the toppers: 1. They are single-minded about what they want. They don’t chase multiple goals like – making money, finding a date and also clearing UPSC. 2.

Can any SSC aspirant show study room photos?

My lovely wife takes care of my study table. She doesn't jumble my books and notes. I am grateful to her. A neat and tidy table helps me in studying for longer hours without interruption. I've started preparing 3 months back and aiming for few exams in coming time, SSC being one of them. Sharing a picture with her when she bought few plants for the study table in order to increase my productivity and positivity while I am at it. To be honest, I get all the positivity and motivation just by looking her put these efforts. Thank you. Source : Rohit Kumar Fagna
