:04:00
But then something happened.
:04:02
There l was
with garbage in front of me.

:04:05
The worst moment of my life.
:04:06
l thought,
"What am l gonna do?"

:04:08
For a second l was real scared.
:04:10
Since l was a girl,
all l heard from people was,

:04:13
"You are nothing.
Nothing is what you deserve."

:04:15
But that night
something clicked.

:04:17
And l just knew
l was worth something.

:04:20
From a little girl
in West Texas

:04:22
to the world's most famous
flight attendant.

:04:24
Author of "My Life in the Sky."
Can we get a shot of that?

:04:27
Motivational speaker.
:04:28
l'm curious.
Why'd you pick flying?

:04:30
No matter how much l love
that sleepy little town,

:04:33
none of my dreams
were waiting down there.

:04:36
They were waiting up there.
:04:38
And frankly, people,
no matter where you're from,

:04:42
no matter who people
think you are,

:04:45
you can be whatever you want.
:04:49
But you got to start right now.
:04:51
Right this second, in fact.
:04:52
But how?
:04:54
You should start
by buying my book.

:04:56
l agree.
But you can't have my copy.

:04:58
"My Life in the Sky."
:05:00
We'll be right back
with more "Pure Oxygen."

:05:21
l took Sally's advice.
:05:23
Sure, Sierra Airlines wasn't
the biggest and the best.

:05:27
lt was the smallest
and the absolute worst.

:05:30
But everybody
has to start somewhere.

:05:34
Donna, why do you want to be
a stewardess?

:05:36
Well, for all
the travel opportunities.

:05:39
And for the excitement.
:05:41
We're a budget airline.
We fly from Laughlin to Fresno.

:05:44
Once a week to Bakersfield.
:05:47
We got five planes.
We fly gamblers and drunks.

:05:51
Right.
:05:53
l want to provide
those gamblers and drunks

:05:55
with the best service
in the sky.

:05:59
You're gonna love
the uniform.
