I'll see you in court

Today, I got fired from my flight attendant job because I commented to a colleague how a passenger has the audacity to fly economy while sporting a huge Louis Vuitton duffle bag, and that it must be a replica bag. Apparently she was within earshot and reported me. FML

Maybe they were flying economy because they'd just dropped a wad on an LV duffel bag. Different people have different priorities, y'know.

So were you shaming a customer for not spending enough money on a perishable item? Or was it spending too much for a genuine durable good, or buying a cheap fake? Either way, why was it any of your business? All you had to do was be a good cart donkey, and you couldn't manage it.

Maybe it was fake or maybe it was a gift? What right do you have to negatively judge someone's circumstances who is just going about their day?

Splurging on a luxury item doesn't mean a person is made of money. It could also have been a gift or been something they inherited. That or even if they could afford first class it could be they have frugal tendencies preferring to save up for the occasional splurge.

Why are you talking about passengers like that? I would report you too if you were my flight attendant talking shit about me. The ****. YDI

"The customer looks like they can afford it, so why do they not pay us more?" Yeah everyone loves hearing that. You losing your job was your own fault.

That seems a trivial reason to FIRE a trained flight attendant. Was this maybe the straw the broke the camel's back? Had you had several misbehavings before this?
