Stewardess Calls in Threat to Get Day Off

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka - A SriLankan Airlines stewardess called in a bomb threat because she wanted a day off, a newspaper reported Sunday.

Investigators traced the call and found that it was made from a mobile phone belonging to the stewardess' boyfriend, Colombo's Sunday Times weekly reported.

"The inquiry reveals that the stewardess had given the false alarm because she did not want to fly that day," it said.

The stewardess was fired, it reported.

SriLankan Airlines spokeswoman Ruvini Jayasinghe declined to either confirm or deny the report and referred the call to senior officials, who were not immediately reachable.

In recent months, two bomb threats forced aircraft to return to the ground in Sri Lanka.

On Oct. 3, a London-bound SriLankan Airlines plane returned to Colombo's international airport after a telephone caller said there was a bomb on board. The aircraft landed safely and no explosives were found.

On Sept. 8, one passenger was killed and 20 others were injured in a stampede to evacuate a Saudi Air plane at the same airport after a similar bomb threat.

SriLankan Airlines is 40 percent owned by Dubai-based Emirates Airlines and 60 percent by Sri Lanka's government.

Hey, the whole internets down. Yeah, all of it. I know, it sucks. So I guess I'll be offline until tomorrow. What? Yeah you have a good day too. Bye.

We used to do that in high school from a payphone tho.. We were that smart at least.. Yea it was bad but fuck it.

Short term thinking.

You can't avoid dumb. We've got plenty of dumb folks right here. It's good to know that stupidity isn't cultural, it's universal.

All the stupid bitch had to do was call in sick. That simple.

this is what happens when yeast infections can think

I love 'stupid people' stories...
