Narrative:
On descent into george bush intercontinental airport, the captain called the purser and told her that it might get bumpy, so please be seated. The purser walked to the back and told the rear flight attendants that the captain wanted them seated. She returned and was seated. 10 mins later, we entered cumulus clouds and encountered moderate turbulence. The rear flight attendants were not seated and incurred minor injuries: backs and scraped elbows.
