Jeanie Daniels was on the flight on Feb. 26 to see her boyfriend, Jimmy Hauser, who lives in Houston. Daniels asked the passengers on both sides if they would mind her painting her nails. They said, ‘No, go right ahead.’
But a flight attendant wasn’t so obliging.


“I thought it was all going well until the attendant came over and was very upset I was painting my nails, saying it was offending everyone around me,” Daniels told CBS2′s Randy Paige.


Daniels went into the bathroom to finish and a second angry flight attendant was waiting for her.


“She said, ‘Weren’t you just told not to paint your nails?’ and I said, ‘Actually, I wasn’t. I was just told it was offending people around me so I did the right thing and went to an enclosed area,’” Daniels explained.
The passenger went back to her seat and was confronted by the first flight attendant.


“She said, ‘You just blatantly didn’t listen to my rules,’ and she just kept carrying it on and on,” Daniels said.


“She was getting so loud when I was sitting in my seat. I was like, just stop, and I was loud when I said…(expletive) because she wouldn’t end the conversation,” she added in a phone interview.
The passenger said as she was leaving the plane she turned to the first flight attendant and said, while raising her hand, “High five — no hard feelings.”
That prompted a police officer ( :\ ) to grab her raised arm, and ask, “Are you trying to hit her?”

these damn power-tripping flight attendants are getting out of control. Soon we'll be posting nonstop flight attendant threads. YASEFAT :rolleyes:

I like Southwest Airlines, why do all the nutty flight attendants have to work for them. :(

I don't get it why would you be offended by someone painting their nails?

The smell, and in an enclosed area.

This. Especially if she's re-doing them. Nail polish remover reeks like a bitch. My sister and I grew up with adjoining rooms, I'd have to close my door whenever she did them (she refused to close hers).

I realise that, I thought she was painting her nails not removing the paint.

Maybe she was, but most women I know remove the old coating before applying the new one to keep it even. Like most of these articles, we need more info.

So? Does it smell like death? No.

Why does that matter. Does shit smell like death? No. It matters to me because I have a problem with a physical reaction to strong odors. You asked what the problem was, I told you.

Of course you don't ... you're Neckbeard. Some products use ACETONE as a thinner. You do not want to be exposed to this in an enclosed area for very long and you better hope that there are no exposed flames present.

They should have let her sit on the wing to do her nails ... they would have dried faster. if I were the airline I would have sued her for stupidity.
