Screw You Guys I'm Getting Paid

Alright, listen up, you guys. It's Eric Cartman here, reporting live from my freakin' living room. United Airlines flight attendants, those poor saps who have to deal with your puking and your general awesomeness, finally got a new deal. A five-year deal, can you believe it? And get this, they're getting a 31% raise. Thirty-one freakin' percent. That's like, almost as much as I make selling my mom's cookies. Respect my authority.

Sweet Boarding Pay

So, get this, these flight attendants are getting something called boarding pay. I know, right? Like, they get paid just for standing there while you dummies shuffle onto the plane with your oversized bags. It's about freakin' time, I say. Airlines have been ripping them off for years, only paying them after the doors are closed. It's like paying me only after I've eaten all the freakin' Cheesy Poofs. Oh, and speaking of getting ripped off, if you want to know more about how money and economics can mess everything up, you should check out this article Oil Prices Fluctuate Amidst Mideast Diplomacy A Dangerous Game. It's almost as complicated as figuring out why Kyle is such a freakin' Jew.

Respect Their Authority, Respect It

I gotta say, I'm impressed. The flight attendants' union, the Association of Flight Attendants or whatever, got 82% of the members to approve the deal. That's like, a bigger majority than I get when I run for class president, which, by the way, is totally rigged because Wendy Testaburger is a freakin' girl. Anyway, good for them. They stood up for themselves and demanded what they deserve. You know, like when I demand my freakin' Cheesy Poofs.

Quality of Life, What's That

But wait, there's more. This deal includes quality-of-life improvements. No more red-eye flights, meaning they can actually get some sleep. And get this, they get "sit pay" if there are delays longer than two and a half hours. Sit pay! That's like, getting paid to do nothing, which, let's be honest, is what I do most of the time anyway. Maybe I should become a flight attendant.

Back Pay, Oh My God They Suck

The best part? They're getting $741 million in back pay. Seven hundred and forty-one freakin' million dollars. That's enough to buy a lifetime supply of Cheesy Poofs, a freakin' amusement park, and maybe even my own theme park. I'm thinking of calling it "Cartmanland." It'll be way better than freakin' Disneyland, I guarantee it. Everyone will respect my authority.

Screw You Guys, They Are Going Home

So, there you have it. The flight attendants are getting paid, they're getting treated better, and they're probably all going to spend their money on stupid stuff. But hey, at least they're not getting screwed over anymore. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go. My mom just made a batch of cookies, and I have to make sure she doesn't eat them all herself. Remember, respect my authority.
