So maybe cut them a break next time you interact with them, I know I do.
I was talking to Ground Staff last week, they have become mostly part time, the Full Time work 9-5, the new part timers work split shifts for the morning peaks- 4:30am for 4 hours, then similar in the evening. Drive to the airport twice a day. NOICE. You add how many narkly customers they have to "serve" after the nth flight has been cancelled/ delayed, they do a great job.
I hope someone on here can confirm this split shift arrangement.
