Narrative:
Flight attendant refused to sit in assigned jumpseat; said she didn't want to face passengers; chose to sit it in aft facing jumpseat for taxi takeoff and landing. I tried to explain that you have to sit in assigned seat and why. After landing I explained I'd have to do a report; she started screaming and talking over me that I should go home and if this bothered me I should see a doctor for help. Several times I tried to explain to no avail. Flight attendant also wore headsets for takeoff and landing. This flight attendant needs training to know why it's important to sit in assigned jump seats.
