Go back under your rock, numbskull.

 
Carbo - your story has some potential, but it sucks as told. If you told it in a slightly different way, it would probably be way more entertaining. This is the message you should be getting from the comments. People aren't insulting you or your wife, it is just that the story is a big letdown.

Some specific comments:

Put it in context - The story doesn't seem to have a point until the end.
Add a carriage return between paragraphs - adds to the overall readability
End the story - Did BJ guy care that he was busted? Was he turned in? Do we get to know whether or not he was thoroughly embarrased or proud of himself?

If you tell a funny story and noone laughs, it's either the story or the telling. In this case its the telling...
 
Only part I don't understand is

Turns out the flight attendant who summoned my wife got wind of another male attendant who was, uh, hanging out in the lavatory with a passenger he just met and, apparently, took a liking to. Mrs. C. and the flight attendant who called her decided to play it cool


Why would the gay flight attendant apparently take a liking to your wife ?

Maybe you missed the period after the "to" in the part of the sentence you highlighted...

Reading Is Fundamental.

So, Mrs. Carbo is an international flight attendant on one of the major carriers. This morning, at about 6:00AM she returns home from a trip to Buenos Aires.
As anyone who has ever flown knows, the vast majority of male flight attendants are gay, (not that there's anything wrong with that, in my best Seinfeld imitation).
Mrs. C. is working the front of the plane when one of the male attendants runs up to her and tells her "You have got to get back here with me now." Dumping her drinks on the passenger she was serving, (he was a rude pain in the ass, anyway), she runs to the back to see what is happening.
Turns out the flight attendant who summoned my wife got wind of another male attendant who was, uh, hanging out in the lavatory with a passenger he just met and, apparently, took a liking to. Mrs. C. and the flight attendant who called her decided to play it cool. They took up seats just opposite the lavatory door and pretended to be engaged in some casual conversation. After a few minutes elapsed their coworker stealthily exits the bathroom and closes the door behind him. But now he notices his two coworkers hanging out in the area. He begins to hem and haw and attempts to look busy, all the while asking my wife and the other guy why they aren't working. For a few minutes he continues to try and get them out of the area, but they are playing with this now nervous wreck of a whore. Finally, realizing they aren't leaving, he does and heads upfront. Whether or not he was going to attend to passengers or look for another "friend" is unknown at this point.
Mrs. Carbo, seizing the moment, now opens the bathroom door and shouts, "What are you doing in here?", to the surprised passenger. He stutters and mumbles in his best Ralph Kramden impression, "Humina, humina, humina...", and slinks back to his seat.
But Mrs. Carbo isn't done. She walks upfront to where our offending fellow is now trying to be cool, and says loudly, "I found your passenger that you left in the bathroom!", and walks away.
Thought I'd share how my day began this morning....




Oh, yeah: *BJP: Blow Job Police

It would have been funny if the passenger was on the plane with his wife. 😱
 
Your wife sounds like a b!tch. Dumping drinks on people, yelling at passengers, and making a scene in public about something that didn't affect her.
 
OK, I think i've got it.

Your wife's a flight attendant. She works with a gay guy. This guy picks up a passenger and gets down a mile high. So she yells about it through the airplane?

Damn, she is so not cool. Getting action from customers is the sacred right of anyone who works with the public. Cockblocking (or other interference) is a no-no. How would you feel is she picked up a guy on the plane, and then one of her co-workers blasted it all over the plane.
 
What I don't understand is why your wife decided to open the bathroom door, scare a paying customer and then proceed to tell the entire plane about it.

It wasn't really any of her business what they did in the bathroom.

You're right, I missed that.
However, ending with "to", that sentece was very awkward.
I believe you're not supposed to end a sentence with a preposition like that.
Plus, you're supposed to double space after periods. That
really would have helped in this case.




 
1) Your story wasn' that funny or great...it actually kind of sucked (no pun intended)

2) You have horrible writing skills. Please learn to use: a) paragraphs, b) proper spacing after '.' There should always be two (2) spaces after each sentence
