In fairness to the Britannia staff, the "them and us" approach could be blamed on the training which no doubt stemmed from the Britannia management. One of the Monarch girls I used to have coffee with decided the Britannia grass was greener and joined them. Drummed into her and the other trainees was the strict instruction that Britannia staff were not allowed to be seen "fraternising" with other airport staff in public, including staff from Monarch. Our coffee breaks continued but were restricted to the Britannia staff restaurant.
