Shoplifter Stewardesses

On the subject of shoplifting by aircrew, a Japanese stewardess was fined $7,000 yesterday by a Singapore court for stealing goods worth $2,356 in August.

A stewardess from Singapore was arrested in Tokyo recently for a similar offence but was let off with a warning from a Japanese judge after being detained for 4 days.

A few years ago, an Indian stewardess from New Delhi was arrested for shop theft at "Mustafa", a local departmental/supermarket store. She was put on a $5,000 bail and allowed to continue flying. She attended the court hearing and her medical examination at IMH during her days-off and that's the reason her Singapore employer did not know about her case.  She was eventually fined $2,000 for the offence. The press did not know about the case otherwise there will be more publicity than the Japanese stewardess's case.
She continue working for a year and left on her own accord.

As for the Singapore stewardess's Tokyo case there was also no press report nor publicity. Presently, she is still flying with the airline.

So your a Stewardesses regardless of which airline your working in you got a good pay but you resort to shoplifting that's just bravo. Or maybe they have such an expensive lifestyle that they are out of dough before their next pay one may say its poor fund management on their part.

Most of the time (though not all the time) when Stewardess is involved in shoplifting, somehow they have a serious relationship problem and the outlet is to steal. Strange but this is how
the poor girl will react to counteract the emotional pain.
My sympathy......

That is sad to see some who go through this, but that doesn't give them the right to steal, there are other ways to to counteract to the emotional pain, go jogging in the middle east carriers most of us fly usually try and lead an active lifestyle to sweat out out our anger and frustration.
