Why the heck do they put female flight attendants in skirts? Their job is, ultimately, to protect the passengers on the aircraft. Skirts and heels don't help evacuate passengers from the plane.

Even if they don't have an emergency, they spend their time stooping, bending, stretching, twisting - all things that are much easier and more comfortably accomplished wearing trousers.
