A flight attendant is sending people into hysterics with her very accurate portrayal of how flight attendants might be working from home.

WARNING: Video contains an instance of strong language bleeped for comedic effect.
The hilarious sketch shows Gillett wearing a flight attendant uniform and speaking to her husband, comedian and magician Wes Barker, as if he were on a flight.
In the beginning of the 4-minute clip, Gillett greets her husband on the couch by asking him if he would like a “welcome beverage.” She then explains the “safety points” for the balcony door, as if it were an emergency exit.

Dedicated to her job, Gillett continues to ask Barker to “stow his laptop” multiple times, while delivering “hot towels” and a mid-flight, or mid-day, “sweet and salty snack.”
However, the most accurate parts – according to the comments on the YouTube video, which has been viewed more than 800,000 times as of Thursday afternoon – were when Gillett sits next to the lavatory eating her salad, before explaining how the door opens.
“You can tell she's actually a flight attendant. This is so realistic....I MISS FLYING ALREADY and it's only been 8 days since my last pairing. Such a funny vid....” one commented.
