I have met some very attractive flight attendants on Aeroflot. During Soviet times and Russian Federation times.

Woah! You worked for Gucci?! What did you do for Gucci?


Yes, I was a personal manager or assistant, whatever you want to call it.


Wow, that's cool! Did you enjoy working with him?
Sounds like a very interesting scene to be in, the fashion industry.

He's attractive, I bet he's charming.

I saw some interviews on TV that confirmed he's charming. Some woman reporter I saw an interview with says that's why he's a dangerous guy 'He mimics your behaviour within seconds'. He must have charmed his way into office..


Oh yes, a very good skill to have for sure.
Flattered those above him, so now look where he is, running a country!

I hope to someday visit Turkey some day too. Just looking at pictures of Istanbul strikes a feeling of awe in me:

Wow.. but then.. trust me Zach, it doesn't compare to the real thing: a hot july sunset over the Bosporus, or the awesome view over the last bridge of the Golden Horn.
Then again.. Istanbul is a thing of it's own, it's not just Turkey, but the capital of quite some previous empires...

The interviewed reporter thought otherwise and claimed Mr Putin was 'quite unlike the usual dull KGB officer'

The KGB routinely had attractive female agents 'charm' secrets out of western 'tourists'.

Oh, please stop teasing me! It's already taking all the will power I have not to go straight to airport, run up the family credit cards, and buy a one-way ticket to Istanbul. Laughing

Yes, you should become a flight attendant. You should work for Emirates so you can snag a rich Arab man who will spoil you. Or is it your plan to snag a Putin lookalike? Laughing

Laughing That is the funniest thing I have heard in quite awhile, thank you....


Your welcome! Smile I almost bought a ushanka from the former East Germany...but it was $2.00. I decided against it because it probably had lice...or was made of disease plague rat fur. Probably both.

Well, lets say he was not easy to work for. It was sweet and bitter. He was a walking mental case. I ended up in the tabloids once because of him. I had no privacy when I worked for him.
