Agree whole heartedly, tantrums are rarely attractive and generally from people who should know better, ie the union reps who appear to have caculatedly thrown a tantrum and are all for spoiling tactics. If the pay is so awful then why are the slots being filled, and by describing the counterstaff as 'monkeys' working for 'peanuts' would seem to be as counterproductice as bringing the airline down. If any other industry goes on strike everyone carps a little... wrong!!! Most people hold their heads in wonder at underground maligerers who get sacked for playing squash when they should have been ill and London is brought to a halt so the unions can re-instate their man. or perhaps the collection of drink cans that just happened to accumulate but nobody either drank or was responsible, or the firemen who want massive rises and are outraged that anybody could be used instead of them if and when they do decide to strike. It is unions and situations like these that make the average citizen think them a plague of trouble makers who seem hellbent on nothing but confrontation and strife.
