Asshole "Christian" Blue Jays Pitcher Expects Airline to Clean Up After His Sloppy Kids

Male Karen Anthony Bass took to Twitter to whine because a flight attendant asked he and his wife to clean up their kids' mess. He thinks that's something peasants do.

He and his wife might be cunts but it is the responsibility of employees to clean up messes, not customers. Anybody who has ever worked in a public facing job knows that.

by Anonymousreply 2April 17, 2023 9:09 PM

R2 agreed. Usually businesses don't want customers to clean up if there's a possibility they'll be hurt.

I wish they'd do this more on planes. When disembarking I always dislike seeing people leaving their rubbish behind, like pigs. That said, if I'd accidentally spilt crumbs I wouldn't get down to pick all of them up as it's too awkward with so many people crammed in together.

The airline staff should not have asked their passengers to clean up. Could the parents be more aware of what their kids are up to? yes, but this is not the point.

Is his wife Black? Or the little kid has a curly Afro wig

The crew shouldn't even have to ASK for a parent to clean up their mess. The parent should do it out of common decency.

by Anonymousreply 8April 17, 2023 9:47 PM

R2, fuck off. No it is not. There are probably over a hundred passengers on that plane and likely 3-5 flight attendants. There is no way they could perform all of their duties and be running around cleaning up after everyone. I don't know what your issue is but absolutely no reasonable person would expect a flight attendant to clean up after someone's child, and a 5 year old at that. The parent should be instructing their child to clean up their own messes at that age,

by Anonymousreply 9April 17, 2023 9:51 PM

I thought the airlines had cleaning crews who tidied up the plane. I've often seem them waiting on the exit ramps when I 'de-planed', as they say.

My guess is he and/or his wife were insufferable on the flight, and the flight crew just wanted to needle them.

by Anonymousreply 10April 17, 2023 9:55 PM

Don't the airlines have handheld vacuums and other cleaning equipment? Did they expect customers to disinfect the plane during the COVID19 pandemic? And what about the bathrooms?

by Anonymousreply 11April 17, 2023 9:56 PM

I think they’d be more willing to help someone who got sick and made a mess, or an elderly person who spilled something. But a kid with an able-bodied parent who’s throwing food on the floor? Team Flight Attendant.

R10 I usually fly on short-haul flights and have never once seen a cleaning crew waiting for a plane. I always make sure to thank the cabin crew as I get off, even if they've not personally done anything for me, as I think they have to put up with a lot of shit

These airlines received billions of dollars from taxpayers to remain solvent, they don't have a budget for a staff to sweep up after a toddler?

This is absurd.

by Anonymousreply 20April 17, 2023 10:20 PM

The flight attendant should’ve grabbed the wife by the scruff of her neck and pointed to the mess while angrily saying, “No! No!”

Why not treat her like the BITCH she clearly is?

by Anonymousreply 21April 17, 2023 11:09 PM

Telling a Good Christian Man to clean up after his fucking kids never does any good.

The most he'll ever do is tell his wife to clean up after the fucking messy kids.

by Anonymousreply 22April 17, 2023 11:15 PM

A pregnant woman traveling with two young kids thought to bring snacks for them so they would be occupied and behave well and some popcorn got spilled on the floor?

If that’s what really happened then the FA is an asshole. And if they don’t have cleaning crews, then the FA’s gripe is with their employer, not the passenger.

Now, leaving trash behind or making a mess that’s not a typical mess incidental to a toddler eating popcorn would be a different story.

But if the mom was really the asshole, would she have picked up the popcorn, or just said “fuck you?”

"A staff," R20? It's a plane, not a resort. Space is limited. This isn't a staffing issue, its an entitlement issue; flight attendants aren't cleaning ladies.

I don't think anyone should be obliged to clean up. They could be helpful, depending on the content. But sanitation is the company's responsibility.

by Anonymousreply 53April 18, 2023 11:19 AM

Very unlikely the flight attendant knew she was pregnant. 22 weeks just looks like a bit of paunch. And if she's flying, she's not under any physical restrictions. Certainly not enough to keep her from bending over like a normal person and picking up a few kernels of popcorn. If she was down on her hands and knees, that was her choice. Or maybe she was just scouting the economy section for a better husband?

by Anonymousreply 54April 18, 2023 11:30 AM

Oh, “United provided the popcorn”. Yes, United forced that poor starving child with no manual dexterity to consume a snack on a short flight because the pregnant therefore incapacitated mother neglected to bring fruit pouches.

by Anonymousreply 55April 18, 2023 11:44 AM

Serving food on the plane doesn't obligate the flight attendants to clean it up if a child throws it on the floor. If I go to a restaurant and they bring free bread to the table, no reasonable person would expect wait staff to crawl around on the floor picking up dinner rolls that some spoiled child threw on the floor.

These people are nuts. Conservatives used to value personal responsibility, and parents would view experiences like this as an opportunity to teach their children to clean up after themselves, be aware of their surroundings, and show care for the people around them. But modern day Republicans and their ilk would rather play class warfare and force "the little people" to do their bidding. Sick, and it really shows how far conservative culture and values have fallen under Trump.

R28, it's the first word in his Twitter bio. It's how he defines himself publicly. He's loudly and ostentatiously "Christian" but he also thinks a worker who makes 1/100th of his inflated salary should crawl around on the floor of a plane cleaning up after his uncontrollable family, and if they don't he sees fit to shame them and try to get them fired, while angling for some kind of compensation from the airline.

This dude might go to church and blab about Jesus at every turn, and I'm sure he religiously votes the same way his evangelical pastor and all his church friends tell him to, but he't the furthest thing from "Christlike."

And he'd probably love to see every gay person on earth burned alive, but that's another story.

If someone drops a roll on the floor in a restaurant a staff person comes by later and sweeps it up if it is under the table. If it is out in the aisles a waiter picks it up.

What escapes most people is that the flight attendants are not there to babysit people's kids, help them with their luggage, or provide a concierge service. The FAs are there to get 100 plus people on and off an airplane safely. They do not get paid to clean the aircraft. They are asked to do so any way. I'm Team Flight Attendant all the way.

by Anonymousreply 66April 18, 2023 12:52 PM

No one says the FA should have cleaned it either. Just leave the damned popcorn on the floor. Its just popcorn. A dry and not very smelly thing. Someone can deal with it after the passengers are off the plane.

This is a mixture of “Don’t you know who I am?” and “As a mother with two kids alone, I should be assisted by everyone within earshot or eyesight at all times.” Neither get much sympathy from me.

I will say though, United created this problem by giving a toddler and a kindergartener popcorn. I worked in a restaurant in college which gave crackers and cheese to customers when they sat down and if kids were at the table we knew to expect a mess.

But isn't the whole point of being a poor that you're supposed to wait on your social superiors? I mean, that's why we let them live.

Isn't it? As much as I despise their existence, we *need* servants.

This stewardess doesn't know her place in the natural pecking order. She's clearly either a feminazi or a lesbian since she's working on a plane instead of flying on one with her brood. If she had made better choices maybe she would have a rich husband, too.

There are crews paid to clean the aircraft between flights.

It was stupid at ask a pregnant woman to do that. It was just inviting PR bullshit. But I accept stewardesses are paid poorly and correspondingly entitled and bitter.
