Gay Jetblue flight attendant Steven Slater, who's well-publicized temper tantrum flung him into a world of celebrity and made him a workingman's hero, is set to get his very own reality TV show.

According to TMZ.com, the concept has Slater hosting a show where disgruntled workers quit their jobs in extravagant ways.

The offer reportedly comes from Stone Entertainment, the production company behind The Mole and The Man Show.

Slater has hired well-known Los Angeles publicist Howard Bragman to help him sort through offers.

Slater's 15 minutes of fame began when he lost his temper with an obnoxious passenger who pulled a bag out of an overhead bin when she wasn't supposed to and ended up hitting him on the head.

He got on the intercom and said, "To the passenger who called me a m---f--er, f--- you!"

Then he grabbed beer from the snack cart, activated the emergency exit slide, and made a dramatic exit sliding down the emergency chute at JFK Airport in New York.

Slater currently faces charges of criminal mischief and trespassing. He has been ordered to appear in court September 7 and could face up to seven years in jail.
