A passenger had difficulty putting his too-large carry on in the
overhead bin. She approached him "What do you have in here? Your
life's belongings?" She tried to help him stuff it in, but no amount
of shoving would get it to fit. "Darlin'" (she was from the south)
"I'm afraid this baby just isn't going to make it. Let me just have
those strong baggage handlers gently put this in our underbelly." He
complied easily.

"All married couples should learn the art of battle as they should learn the art of making love. Good battle is objective and honest - never vicious or cruel. Good battle is healthy and constructive, and brings to a marriage the principle of equal partnership." -- Ann Landers |

The Paschalis Factor
As I boarded the flight, I was greeted by a flight attendant. In the course of a year, I'm greeted by dozens of flight attendants, most of whom are pleasant and professional. This one, however, struck me as different.

She not only said "Hello," looked me in the eye, and smiled, she
added "how are you today?" in a way that seemed she was really
interested in my response, not just a throw away pleasantry. "I'm
doing great" I responded. "I'm glad to hear it," she continued,
"we're going to have a great flight."
I noticed she interacted similarly with every passenger she came in contact with. She wasn't just doing her duty by perfunctorily interacting pleasantly with each person, she seemed actually interested in their responses.
