I failed twice my FA training it’s not bc I partied it’s bc  computerization text was confusing for me I had a language barrier. But I’m not giving up I will try it until I get the job

I booked 3 sessions with Abbie and she helped me polish my skills. I ended up getting a CJO on my first try. Thank you 🙏 Abbie ❤

I felt like things happened because I wasnt meant to be at that airline.

3:13 If you cannot handle yourself for 4-6 weeks without getting high, then you don't need to be a flight attendant. You need therapy. This is a real job with serious responsibilities, some of which are stressful. If you need a substance to help you manage that stress (& all weed/cbd does is allow you to escape from it. It doesn't solve or cure your problems.) then you should not be a flight attendant. How can you care for others when you cannot care for yourself.

Pretending to be sick to call off is always no-no.

All you have to do is prepare as much as possible prior to training and focus on studying! That’s why you are there. I would come home from training take and hour and hit the books. I didn’t get below a 90% on any tests. I made it threw but 5 days after has to put my two week notice in due to family emergency. I am going to reapply to the same one and also applying for others.

Thank you for the details! I very much appreciate you sharing. I’m retiring from a successful sales career and will be applying soon to pursue what I’ve always wanted to do…..I hope the saying “You’re never too old” proves true in my pursuit! A good day to all!

lol! I remember my first regional Airline Horizon Air 2019 Wonderful starter airline if you live west coast! I was sent home because I could NOT memorize the announcements! All I had to do was lock in! Fast forward to 2025. I am now with a legacy carrier! Never give up and lock in!

I failed the arming door drill by fumbling a couple of words. I am crushed. So much work and effort put in and sent home 3 weeks into training. 😢 I learned so much when I was there which is a positive for me.

I failed because I said "lmao" in what I thought was a private chat amongst my classmates, but was actually a company monitored server. 😢

I got really sick with a gastrointestinal stomach virus, temperature, and fatigue! I dont know if it was Covid. The first two weeks I had altitude issues, constant runny nose, and nose bleeds! I didnt do well because I was sick.

Background check cleared but drug testing showed adhd meds but i provided the prescription with date before drug test.  Mro is moving slowly

please please i get scared on test

Another reason is violating the hotel rules: causing a scene, having appliances in the rooms, if the room doesnt come with it then you cant bring it. smoking inside, loud music, inviting non crew for that airline to their room.

Thank you so very much! Just the way you explain all of this puts my nerves at ease. Really appreciate your direction. Wish you blessings.

Im glad i did the military Navy instead.

OMG.  I just WENT to training in 1988. Yes, it was tough. No, I didn't prepare. It was harder than I ever thought it would be and don't try to say it's harder now.  You behave, you study hard, you give it your all.  We had a bar onsite at training.  Occsionally we drank, we partied...we showed up on time for class the next day and we busted our asses. Not to mention the weight guidelines that were in place then. I was 5' 6" and could only weigh 131 lbs.  A supervisor could pull you aside in any airport and tell you you needed to be weighed.  It was humiliating and thank God was done away with. Oh, and you could smoke on the planes in the back. That ended around 1990 or so.  I flew for 5 years with American.

the frontier show series reminded me of being in a police academy or fire service academy!

Great advice ! All this also applies outside of the airline industry, well a big part of your list, I doubt a Walmart job would have an extensive background check, but most of the reasons you gave apply to all jobs.  Thank you! 😊

100% on all of this!
