I hear that SW and the HR "department" are checking this site daily for updates! so thought I would add some input to keep them going!
Lets face it, it really is time something was done about LF and even RR come to that. They have both had enough chances to prove themselves. Its all well and good PONDSKIPPER saying we are not working in the office and the crew enjoy themselves downroute. But what about having some kind of respect for the crew from the office based staff (ie;LF the cabin crew manager!). What about morale? It would certainly improve with a "good morning, hello" or even a smile. Not a miserable look and a door slam as she see's the crew coming. Alas I do feel it really is too late for these two (kray twins! loved that one). But lets be honest SW recruited them both so cannot lose face over these. ship em out SW and you will soon see morale improve, gain that respet you once had and prove yourself as a good manager. you were not so slack at firing crew even with so little evidence so why hang around when the evidence is slapping you in the face???
Have to agree with the comments about "different varients" on the same type A/C. I have never known anything like it! I had to do my location "WRONG" to pass my exams on my refreshers???? when I complained we were confronted with RR telling us to do it as per the manual. BUT IT'S WRONG we replied. imagine the confusion when on board when things are not as per the book???
Again he has had enough chances. SHIP HIM OUT. imagine if crew behaved in this way? what a different story that would be. there were very suitable applicants (one in particular) who could have been brilliant at this job.(as was the one already covering it). i have made investigations regarding some of the allegations on this site. all I'm saying speak to any midland crew! funny how any ex midland crew made very quick exits when he arrived!!!
So why did so many crew go to BA? do you think they saw it as a better option? do you think MOST of these people would have gone if it was not for the above two mentioned people? No not attal. most people that have gone should still be with us. they were in the twilight of their careers. they have gone to BA to be junior crew??? come on SW read between the lines.
FINALLY (I think?) NITESTOP; I love your humour! ever thought of doing stand up commedy????? how about *** and *** as their new names???? bless you for bringing tears of laughter to my eyes.
oh and one more thing! monarch have a very good reputation! strict but fare,
over and out!
