The following question was presented:
I'm back on the road again with all of its joys of flying out Monday, returning Thursday. Pretty much sleeping on the flights ... or at least trying to. If your ass is too fat to fit down the aisle of a plane without bumping into all the passengers, should you be allowed to be a flight attendant?

Analysis:
A divided answer. I'm somewhat surprised at this as I find it very frustrating. Here's the thing - airlines do that think where they put the basket by the entrance with the note something like “if it fits, it's carry on” meaning that if your bag does not fit in the measuring basket, you should check your bag. It only seems fair that at flight attendant school they should have a chair with a note like “if your ass fits, you can be a flight attendant” otherwise it's off to baggage handling for you. Listen, I've nothing against fat asses. Quite the opposite. But there's a time and a place for everything and I don't particularly want one banging into me when I'm trying to sleep.
