Andrew had always lived a privileged life. His father was a wealthy man who owned multiple businesses in New York and provided Andrew with every opportunity. Over time, however, Andrew turned into a spoiled teenager who treated everyone with disrespect.
One day, while flying home, he caused a scene in front of the other passengers, demanding a snack from the flight attendant.
“Hey, YOU! Bring me something better than this junk — NOW!” he said, throwing the snack at her.
“Sir, please don’t throw things at me,” the flight attendant said, feeling humiliated.
“Listen to me! I do what I want!” Andrew shouted. “You’re here to serve me, so stop complaining, shut up, and do your job!”
Another passenger told him to treat the flight attendant with more respect, but Andrew, acting like a spoiled teen, insisted he could do whatever he wanted.
That was when he started to understand how the flight attendant must have felt being mocked.
Andrew realized what he had done and felt regret.
As the day went on, he tried to behave better. At one point, he noticed the flight attendant he had mistreated and approached her:
“I’m the spoiled teen who treated you badly earlier.”
The flight attendant recognized him. Smiling, she said:
“Looks like you’ve learned your lesson.”
Andrew expressed his remorse and apologized.
