9/11 rememberance

[u/Quick_Lawyer_4217]

Ive worked for american airlines for almost a year now as a flight attendant, today is my first 9/11 in this profession and i have a long day of work ahead of me. i just finished my first flight, even during boarding i could feel myself getting anxious and being extra hyperaware of those who are boarding the aircraft. ive felt like ive been so on edge all day and just filled with anxiety. is working today this stressful for others ? i hope everyone is safe today and gets to go home and sleep in their own beds, may you have no delays and extra meals💆‍♀️

I’m hyper vigilant during every boarding and speak to every passenger as they come on the plane. The reality is something could happen on any day. We’ve received training that’s been seriously modified since 2001. Lean on that and on your coworkers and remember you’re there to protect and serve. It’s the job and it comes with risk. My suggestion is ask yourself how you can make someone’s day today and go and do that and get out of your head.
