It’s always special for me when I fly with someone who knew and loved Ron. You can’t have a bad trip if JJ is on it. When I signed in for my trip I saw my friend JJ was going to be flying with us instead. I knew I would be flying with two delightful Skytresses on my trip. Woo hoo! I slept extremely well on my way to Atlanta….Thank you very much. First, my coach seat was changed to a first-class seat. I had a couple wonderful small victories on Tuesday, May 18th, when I headed off to work. It sure feels like we have won the Super Bowl. It’s an amazing feeling when the crew returns to the galley and we have completed several beverage services with meager supplies. Yes! We still can’t seem to right that catering ship. It’s one of our super powers! You may, also, remember another super power we possess is conducting several beverage services without the proper catering. Yet, they don’t seem to know it.” Thankfully, there are skilled Skytresses and Skyters that figure it all out for everyone. As one of our agents said the other day, “These passengers have seat numbers on their tickets. So, now it’s a small victory every flight when we get everyone in their seats. Yessiree, not falling asleep while I was working a long- haul flight with very few passengers was definitely a small victory in my book. You may recall, at the time, our planes were empty of passengers and supplies. It was probably a small victory for my family to see me go off to work, too. It was a small victory for me when I stepped on the aircraft after six months of not flying.
Our minds just didn’t comprehend the magnitude of the victory at first. The funny thing about small victories, though….sometimes when we look at them more closely….they were huge victories. I’m always looking for the small victories in my life. It was the first time in over a year I have walked into an establishment without wearing my face mask. I clutched my mask and walked inside and bought my ticket. I could see the attendants inside working without their masks on. The mandatory mask mandate sign was no longer on the door. The day before we finally had our mask mandates lifted in St. I had my face mask in my hand ready to put it on to wear inside the shop. Two Saturdays ago I walked into my local gas station to buy a PowerBall lottery ticket.
