John Carmichael’s path to the skies was anything but ordinary—rising from the tarmac as a Marriott Catering "ramp rat" to earning his wings as a Braniff Flight Attendant. Based out of DFW, John knew how to play his hand wisely. He intentionally bid Reserve, but with a clever strategy in mind: he learned how to navigate the late-call system alongside the scheduling department. Later becoming a supervisor and offered the scheduling department inside insights to helping crews have a better Trip. In those days, the culture was wild enough that you could even call in sick to your supervisor simply because your IUD wasn't feeling right!

Clock #434: The Nickname Man! We called him Anaconda, Spongehead, and Blackman—but he was also known as one of the most respected Flight Attendants in the fleet. From our days busting Don Moffett to hanging out with the most beautiful women in the sky, we’ve got some incredible stories. Tune in for Herman’s encounter with Dean Martin, and the powerful story of how he survived one of the most horrific accidents in Flight Attendant history.
