Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, question, what's the biggest fail you've suffered at work? Gosh,
I mean, maybe you accidentally put some aluminum foil in
the microwave or you pushed reply all.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
I'm the type of person that blocks all that stuff
out so I don't have to think about it.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
No more, don't have to relive the moment.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
So yeah, I'm sure I did something that I just
don't remember.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Yeah, so get this. A Delta Airlines flight attendant made
a big oopsie on Saturday. The flight attendant accidentally activated
an emergency exit slide prior to take off.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
The trip a button or something.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I'm not sure how that works. The trip from Pittsburgh
the Salt Lake City was delayed by almost four hours.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
My gosh.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
The flight attendant, who has twenty six years of experience,
is quite flustered and apologized for the mistake.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
See.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I think because it's an emergency slide, they don't make
it too complicated with.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
You, because, I mean, if things are going on, you
just want to be able to hit something.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
May have been just something she or he you know,
accidentally did, maybe closing the door or whatever. But yeah,
the slide was deployed against the jet bridge, trapping passengers
on board until maintenance workers could detach it.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Man, they weren't in any kind of danger.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
No, no, but you know, apparently repacking an evacuation slide
the air for the airbus A two twenty models, it
takes a little while. You can't just fold it up
and be on your way.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
It's a little more complicated than the sleeping bag.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yeah, it's a little more complicated, Yeah, than shoving it
into yeah, a bag or whatever. And apparently it costs
a lot. I'm reading between fifty and one hundred thousand
dollars is the cost to put it back in and
put it back Oh my gosh. Yeah, so that is
a big oops.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Yeah, are they Are they getting in trouble at all?
Do we know?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Or I mean, I think it was an honest to
say that.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Don't necessarily mean you don't get in trouble just because Yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Yeah, I don't know if you have to pay part
of that or I don't know how that works.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
And you know what the passengers did not They weren't
offered the chance to use the slide when it you know, deployed,
you know, when they were getting off, they didn't because
I thought, well, as long as we got this thing
out here, let me jump on the slide and have
a little fun. I would I would have been up
there not complaining about the fact that I was delayed
(02:28):
four hours. It was like, listen, I got that, but
why didn't we get to use the slide when we
got off the plane.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Anybody got some dis
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Let's make it a slippy Let's do it slippy slide.
