A flight attendant revealed that she sometimes gets paid for doing basically nothing \u2013 except perhaps watching Netflix and sleeping.<\/p>\n

In a TikTok video, user @dandelion_wind shows herself doing her makeup and packing her suitcase and says she has been "called in for standby". <\/p>\n

She explains: "I go in and stay in the airport for six hours just in case I need to replace another flight attendant.<\/p>\n

"I packed up three days worth of food and scooted on over there. I switched my flats for my heels and then no one was there so I actually scored a super-comfy chair to watch Netflix in."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The footage shows the airport looking practically deserted and the air hostess is able to put her feet up and relax with her snacks and entertainment.<\/p>\n

She then says: "About halfway through I fixed up my scarf to make sure I wasn't looking raggedy."<\/p>\n

The air hostess says she spotted a pilot playing guitar, then "ate for most of the five and a half hours", and read a book, feeling "happy because they didn't call me".<\/p>\n

With the six hours done, she could pack up her belongings and go back home.<\/p>\n
