How do you handle remarks when on an airplane?
I’m a flight attendant for a major airline and I often have other flight attendants (with disgust sometimes) ask me to brush my shoulders off. Passengers will make comments as well. How should I handle this the best way? I’m so self-conscious because our uniforms are all dark colors.
Hi Lauren! I hear you and I wanted to share an article that another community member wrote on tips for dealing with psoriasis in the workplace: https://plaquepsoriasis.com/living/manage-psoriasis-job/. Additionally, other community members have chimed in to note what works for them: https://plaquepsoriasis.com/q-and-a/ideas-for-working-with-psoriasis/. I hope that you find this information helpful!
Oh my goodness I am so sorry that you are having to deal with this. If it were me, I would just explain it to them upfront and ask them not to be judgmental as it is hard enough as it is. - Clair, Community Moderator
I worked the cosmetic industry. Most of the time people were fine. If I got a question I would answer and that was that. Once in a while I got one that wouldn’t shut up about my skin. I’m over 50. I just don’t deal with people like that. I would just walk away lol
