It’s no secret that becoming a Flight Attendant for Delta is hard work. Each new recruit spends 5 1/2 weeks in training before they are ready for the skies. Recently one curious reporter went behind the scenes at the Delta Flight Attendant Academy to try out this demanding (and rewarding) profession so many aspire to — this Spring alone we received more than 100,000 applications for 1,200 open positions. Check out the article here: TIME: Scared of Flight Attendants? Become one.

Looks to me like Joel did a pretty good job and had some fun in the process, even if he didn’t get to wear our Richard Tyler uniforms. What do you think, did he make our Flight Attendants proud?
