Hi,
Well I am sorry I ever posted this topic. I didnt think it would evolve into a slanging match. I totally agree with your post flyblue.
Well just for the record I decided not to go ahead with the position at FlyJet. The main reason was because of the contractual details. I didn't like the idea of being "seconded" to the airline by a Crew management leasing company. Seemed a bit Fishy to me. It probably works for other people, but I would far prefer to be employed by the company itself and not a Third Party. It brings back memories of casual temping in a call centre.
Anyway, have decided to hang up my ice tongs for a bit and work for a rail company. Have worked for one before and didn't like it, but I have been offered a very attractive seniors postion with an equally attractive salary/benefits package. This company is very Red and Silver and is owned by the guy who puts those gorgeous Silver and Red aluminium tubes in the sky over the atlantic.
Hope it all goes well at Flyjet and it continues to go well for all of you, like I said it just didn't seem the right place for me.
Still keeping my ear to the ground for news and gossip on the cabin crew side as I will grace the skies again soon when the right time comes again.
Take care and happy landings....
