And for those of you still flying...

You've been a flight attendant too long if...

 1. You can eat a 4 course meal standing at the kitchen counter
 2. You search for a button to flush the toilet    
 3. You look for the "crew line" at the grocery store    
 4. You can pack for a 2 week trip to Europe in 1 roll-aboard
  5. All of your pens have different hotel names on them
  6. You NEVER unpack
  7. You can recognize pilots by the backs of their heads-but not  by their faces
  8. You can tell from 70 yards away if a piece of luggage will  fit in the overhead bin
  9. You care about the local news in a city three states away
  10. You can tie a neck scarf 36 ways
  11. You know at least 25 uses for air sickness bags-none of  which pertain to vomit
  12. You understand and actually use the 24-hour clock
  13. You own 2 sets of uniforms: fat and thin
  14. You don't think in "months"-you think in "bid sheets"
  15. You always point with two fingers
  16. You get a little too excited by certain types of ice
  17. You stand at the front door and politely say "Buh-bye,  thanks, have a nice day" when someone leaves your home
  18. You can make a sentence using all of the following phrases:  "At this time, " "For your safety, " "Feel free, " and "As a reminder"
  19. You know what's on the cover of the current issues of In  Touch, Star, and People magazines
  20. You stop and inspect every fire extinguisher you pass, just  to make sure the "gauge is in the green"
  21. Your thighs are covered in bruises from armrests and elbows
  22. You wake up and have to look at the hotel stationery to  figure out where you are
  23. You refer to cities by their airport codes
  24. Every time the doorbell rings you look at the ceiling.
  25. You actually understand every item on this list

  Thanks to Diane Kolodziejski for this list. And yes, we understood all 25 !
