Hey guys, welcome back to my channel!
Today I am going to invite a guest to join me and I will also do her make-up
I will use her make-up, I think its also a small challenge for me since they are not my own make-up
so I won't be familiar
when I do her make-up together we are going to talk about a topic
So, today my guest is a former flight attendant for Emirates and shes resigned recently
So we together are going to answer all your questions (for me) about Emirates flight attendant
Her name is Trúc
Ok, she already has foundation on. I will start with concealer to cover some imperfections.
Although her skin already quite flawless. but the more perfect the better, right?
Truc: hey guys, My name is Trúc, 25 yrs old. I resigned from Emirates 3 months ago
I worked there for about 1 year and 8~9 months
I going back to Vietnam because of family's matter
Me: Family matter is getting married ^^
Trúc: follow my heart :D
Trúc: well just got my visa for UK now so we are leaving vietnam for UK this April
Then a few years there and we will see
Life after resigning? I cant put into words, really mixed feelings
because the past 2 years with Emirates, I was on the move, travel around the worlds, different countries every 2-3 days
so used to that feeling so these few months its kinda sad for me
Duy: are you used to life here? I meant your away for a while so really need sometimes to get back to life here right?
Duy: However, you are not planning to stay so, its not that necessary to get used to life here, right? <JOKE>
Trúc: yea, for me Vietnam is the best no matter where I am.
its so easy for me to go anywhere and do things here. Bored? I can go to tons of fun places, Hungry? street food is everywhere
I cant really find those simple things anywhere as here
Duy: Are you excited for UK?
Trúc: yes of course, but also am worried
Since I am used life here, life in Dubai. now I am moving to a completely different country, of course I am a bit scared
but still I am happy because I am going with my husband
No, no regret. Because my plan before has always been staying in Dubai for 2 years and I went with my plan
I actually want to follow another career path
another job, in the past, I worked in Digital Marketing and I am into that so..
Duy: ah so the original plan was staying in Dubai for 2 years
Duy: I got it now
Trúc: well I cant leave my husband for too long
Duy: yea, I notice that long distance relationships are super difficult to maintain. Those who work it out, are truly serious people
they belong together
Trúc: There was a guys on the flight from Hamburg
ah, Dusseldorf
when he got on board, he suddenly screamed so loud " OMG I have a bomb in my bag!"
Then we were all frozen, went straight to inform captain
The captain took it serious because we can not under- estimate any circumstances/ jokes. so we offloaded him
all the crews had to start over with the security search the aircraft
then 3 hours delay
and as the procedure, the policemen kept him at Dusseldorf airport until the aircraft safely landed back to Dubai
It was horrible, the passengers was furious and complaining at us crew because of the delay
but we could not tell them the real reason behind the delay (Company policy)
Duy: what do you think about the guy? is he insane or something? Who would of screaming like that
Trúc: I had no idea if hes stable or not. but his friends made it to the flight and he didnot
You can not make jokes about bomb
Aviation takes those stuffs very serious. if stepping into the airport, do not mention those words
Duy: this a tip for you guys, if you are going to the airport, jokes are fun but
do not over do it because of the bad effects of these jokes
those bad jokes regarding bomb or explosions. No NO
Since people have no ideas those are jokes or not, the would prefer to make mistakes of taking those jokes serious than letting it go. Netter safe than sorry
Trúc: ye, some passenger insulted me
because we did not have enough chicken for him
he literally yelled at my face. that was a flight to Barcelona
My very first flight in my career
I was pushing the meal cart and when I went to him, there was no chicken left. So he was so furious
He pointed his finger at me and continued cursing
I was brand new so I got scared. I just apologized to him many times and went to inform the senior
the senior came and deal with him. Well. Theres no more chicken choice, what could I do
Thats it, the rest of my flights are super fun and happy
Duy: so all the flights were fun? OMG, why your life is so easy
Trúc: ah, there was one story. there was a crew from south africa
I had no idea what was her problem but we argued a bit
Duy: yea its quite common to have some conflicts with crews on board!
Trúc: yea my life is actually easy on board
Duy: I know, my flight attendant career was full of drama, thats why I quit LOL
Trúc: well I didnt really talk to people on board so
Duy: yea me too
Trúc: I think if I am acting too nice on board, people can get a bit too comfortable
Duy: or they can take advantages of you
Duy: guys, asian crews who usually look nice,naive, got bullied quite often by others
Thats why I always do my make- up like this. Please do not think that my make-up is too extreme! Its because I do my make-up with a Purpose LOL
Trúc: I know, I guarantee you guys Duy is nice
I always remember when I traveled as passenger to Vietnam. we did not know each other at that time yet. She checked the staff -list and found me as vietnamese cabincrew
She brought me so many stuffs and treats. she put it under my seat when I was sleeping so I had no idea till I woke up later
After I woke up, she came said Hi, thats so sweet
Duy: well, since we are all vietnamese crews, I always checked the staff list when I was doing Vietnamese flights because Vietnamese crews go home a lot as passengers
If theres staff, I would always come say Hi, bring some water or treats, because why not?
we are vietnamese, so no need to be ignorant or playing hard to get
or pretend not to know each other
Trúc: yea pretend not to be vietnamese sometimes
Duy: well, I always spoke Vietnamese to Vietnamese people when I was flying
Duy: however, there were flights, the Vietnamese passengers on board did not want to speak Vietnamese to me at all
Truc: ye they prefer us not speaking Vietnamese to them
Duy: I remember this Vietnam flight, I was doing the beverage cart in the cabin, I heard these guys spoke Vietnamese to each others. So I offered them drinks in Vietnamese
They just replied to me in English
Trúc: they probably thought you were not Viet
Duy: I was speaking to them in Vietnamese, girl
Truc: well, you know that my husband, he went to a restaurant and ordered food in Vietnamese. They either ignored him or spoke english to him because they would not expect this western guy to speak Vietnamese
Duy: aw, so your husband can speak some Vietnamese ey?
Trúc: ye, some. He can communicate with my mom
Trúc: I enjoy flying but not the preparation part before flight. Before every flights, I had to wake up 4 hours
2,3am still then put some make-up on . other than that, I am quite easy- going so yea, I do enjoy
Duy: you are a super fun person thou
Trúc: I think I am a very "nice" person <JOKE>
Duy: were you nice on the flight?
Trúc: yea, if I was not happy with something, I would leave and kept quiet about it
Duy: I would speak up if I dislike something
Trúc: maybe I was flying for only 2 years so still quite new
Duy: you meant getting bitchy? <JOKE>
Trúc: They always called me Truck
Duy: your name is Trúc and they pronounce Truck?
Trúc: to the point everytime I went to pre- flight briefing room, I just told them to call me "Chuppa-chup" whenever thay asked
Duy: My name is Duy, but they always pronounce "D" in english, so it sounds like "Blind" in Vietnamese
So I just told them to call me "U.A.E" like the name of the country. when you say it fast its " U-Ee" so ye..
Ye thats fine, if they call me "Duy" (english D) I wouldnt respond
Trúc: No they didnt teach us make-up
They just showed us the proper color to wear and make-up. Thats it. The techniques were not really
Duy: the image and uniform class was like 1 day
Trúc: yea on that day, they just showed us how to present the company and brand the best, thats it!
Duy: since I like make-up so I wear all the time, so they asked Do we have to wear a lot of make up to work
Both: NO
Trúc: yea for flights, I only did eyeliner, eyebrows and lipsticks, thats it!
Trúc: if your lazy as me, you can spend that amount of make-up time for sleeping/resting before flight.
Duy: me, to be honest, 4 year working for Emirates as a flight attendant, even a 45 minutes flights to Doha or 16 hours to the States, I would always spend 2 hours before every flight just to do make-up
Truc: seriously?
Duy: I would never give up on my passion. I always wanted to be perfect on duty
Truc: wow, for me I do not care that much. Just wanted to make it fast, only 30 minutes for make-up
Duy: ye I think for me its pretty much a passion already. nothing else
Duy: No i didnt have any pets back then. Because we were flying all over, I would not have anytime to take care of pets.
who would take care of pets when I am away?
question is Can we have pets in Emirates accommodation?
Truc: based on company's policy, you can not!
Duy: its up to the building you live in though
Duy: My friend has catssssss
Truc: it probably a secret, no one knows
Duy: nah, that building allows, I saw some crews have Husky also
Truc: you do not need to know how to swim, use a swimming float
during training, you will sometimes have to get to the water but you will be provided life-jackets though.
swimming is not a requirement
Yes, as long as they are not visible and when you smile, they look good and normal
Truc: as I remember before joining, they sent you a Medical form to tick off the list of things you need to prepare. "fake teeth" was not mentioned anywhere
Truc: just need to look a part of a Emirates future cabincrew
Truc: did you wear false lashes when you went for the interview?
Duy: nope
Duy: even when I started to work, no false eyelashes
Truc: yea me either
Truc: I remember those who wore false eyelashes did not make it at the end
Duy: I notice lots of emirates girls wear eyelash extension on board
If they are hidden under your uniform, its ok
Theres people wear eye-sight glasses, normal, theres a document you need to carry all the flights if you wear glasses
age limit from 21-19 years old to apply
even if your 29, but your birthday is december, you still can apply
Theres a slovakia guy I knew, tall and handsome
he was 29,5 years old, when he got to Dubai, he was 30 years old. The oldest one in class
People asked me if they need any bachelor degrees, university degrees, IELTS, TOEIC blah blah everything
Truc: they asked do they need any aviation degree.. The answer is No
Duy: ye, also they also commented on my video asked they need to graduate from Aviation schools, though I said I graduated from business schools
Truc: I studied to be an english teacher for kids before
Truc: as I remember you have to be the same as your ID picture
Duy: as you might know Dubai is a Muslim country so they are very strict in term of that
I was watching this Youtuber, shes trans and when she went to Dubai all the way from the states, she was refused to enter the country
Truc: poor girl
Truc: as long as they do not know, and you keep for yourself
Duy: I knew so many crews they took leaves, vacations and went for cosmetic surgeries. Its fine as long as when you get back on duty, you are still looking nice and normal
Truc: as long as your not very different from ID, can always blame make-up for some changes on your face though
Duy: i find Emirates quite easy
Truc: well, some flights will have 1-2 guys and 20 girls for example
Duy: also some flights I did, there were all guys, only a few girls so ye, it depends
Truc: cant tell if its more difficult for guys than girls
Duy: based on policy, you can not keep your uniform
Truc: because its about safety and security though
Duy: if you want them, you then say you lose the uniform to buy the new one. They are very expensive though
Truc: its a few millions Viet nam Dong though
Duy: what did you keep from your uniform?
because I need to buy a new hat, something was wrong with my old one
Duy: I only keep my nametag
Duy: some people ask me if they can buy my old emirates uniform. OMG
if I really keep them for memory, then Ill keep, why would I even sell them?
Duy: do you still want to be flight attendant? British airway for example
Truc: ye why not? I do not have a defined answer, if theres chance, Ill go for it
For now, I would prefer to go for advertising field
Duy: if your not getting married, would you continue flying?
Truc: ye, I would finish 1 contract
Duy: 1 contract is 3 year,s guys
I found this make-up is more like arabic style ey?
Guys, so her make-up is done now! Doesnt she look amazing?
Now its 4 pm, shes ready to go clubbing
Truc: yea kinda
