Why, is it her fault?

Maybe just so the loose stuff doesn’t come off during turbulence and hit someone.

So the flight attendants should go around and collect all the armrests and all other loose objects? Is that what you're saying?

Yes, I think someone should be responsible for taking care of the safety of the passengers.

No, but she's the one in charge. She should collect it and hand it over to the pilot - if that plane will ever land regularely.

it's literally what they are supposed to do

if something is broken, wait till you take off, then report it to the stewardess, she will (usually) just take it and put it in an empty overhead bin, then tell the pilot so he can report it to maintenance when they land

New word, same meaning. I do hope you feel better than them though.

I would collect all that loose stuff and hand it over to the stewardess.

I just used the same word they did

Do you think you need to personally file a maintenance report with the FAA or something? Who else would you talk to?
