Taking to Reddit , one poster shared a Chicago and Southern AirLines 'qualifications' list for a stewardess - and many suggested it looked like a man's list of requirements.
The article discusses the sexist job specifications for flight attendants in 1954, which included requirements based on physical appearance and marital status, sparking outrage when rediscovered. It contrasts this with modern standards, which prioritize qualifications and skills, allowing both genders to apply. Today's flight attendants face challenges like difficult passengers, heavy workloads, and physical demands, including dehydration and fatigue from long shifts.
