Hmm, sounds like a bit of a plan in place?
Somebody in the know so to speak may be able to verify if this is true but i have been told that FA's on some of the latest contracts or EA's earn about $30/hour,the push by the company wants that reduced to around $22/hour.
If this is correct why would anybody even consider becoming an FA? There are so many positions in cafes/restaurants right now paying more than that & w/end work attracts penalties & there are no jetlag issues or phone calls telling u to show up for work the next morning at 5am or whatever time they suddenly dream up.
