Narrative:
This flight was diverted due to WX in ord. The PIC inquired of the purser if there were any flight attendants that may go illegal on the ground. The purser inquired of me and I told her that may very well be the case; however; I read her the far page of the faom that required the available jetbridge to be attached. He as much as told the purser he would not comply with the far as he was afraid that I would get off. I can only assume the far is in place to ensure the safety of crew and the customers. It was intentionally violated.
