Well, since I didn't identify the airline, I'll say what happened.

The pilot said, "You know what? Sit down. it's not going to get any better and they both thanked me, had a seat and thanked me again after the flight."

At first he thought he kinda overstepped his bounds, but the turbulence on the arrival was nasty and actually a little worse.

So some may say that he might be bossy, but A LOT of flight attendents get seriously injured in turbulence and the medical benefits aren't that great to risk getting an OJI in moderate turbulence because grandma wants a Diet Rite.
