Gawker.com - In the wake of Steven Slater immortalizing himself with spectacular display of flight attendant rebellion, we call our attention to another act of mid-flight attrition: "cropdusting," when flight attendants walk down an airplane aisle and fart in seated passengers' faces.
Last week's New Yorker included an essay by David Sedaris about the universal agonies of commercial air travel. In retrospect, a passage about flight attendant revenge tactics may have been a bit prescient. Your guide to "cropdusting":
Are people acting like cropdusting is limited to just flight attendants? Shit, I'd bet money that 95% of people drop bombs at work for just this reason. You got a boss busting your ass about TPS reports, then you get him back when he's next in line for the copier. That's just how things work. You should see how I deal with my classes when they start talking back. I can make paint peel off the gym walls with some of the toxins that come outta me. So acting like there is some methane epidemic in the airline business is stupid. Let's just act like civilized adults and admit we all fart in each others faces outta spite.
