Flight Attendant Meme is an internet meme created by product manager Laura Gao by imagining a scenario in which she and her dad were on an airplane, and the flight attendant asked if there was a doctor onboard to help with a medical emergency. In response to the flight attendant's request, Gao pictured her dad roasting her career as a product manager. ^{[1] [2]}

In the scenario, a flight attendant asked if there was a doctor on board, and Gao’s father took the opportunity to say, “that should have been you,” and then proceeded to roast her job.

“Not asking for a Product Manager to help, are they?” Goa “recalled” her dad as saying.

Gao responded with a “Dad, there’s a medical emergency happening right now.”

“Go and see if ‘let’s have a follow-up meeting’ helps,” she then wrote her dad as saying.

The meme quickly circulated online, as people were eager to share their own hypothetical scenarios, probably based on real conversations, making fun of their respective career choices. The meme now follows a similar format as the one Gao used. ^[2]

Other Twitter users made the meme format about another popular topic of conversation during the holidays, relationships. ^[2]

“Ohhhhh he’s cute!” one user’s mom said about the hypothetical doctor on board who rushed to help in a medical emergency.

“Just give him your number!

you’re never going to meet anyone with that attitude,” she continued.
