Tin hat on and standing well back.....
While I appreciate there are some very highly qualified people flying as Cabin Crew with BA - and in my own experience I have flown with countless people with Bachelor's degrees (as I have myself), quite a few people with Master's degrees (one I remember as ex-Harvard!!) and the odd PhD - can I ask (and this is where the tin hat comes in), much as you all say you love the job, bearing in mind what has been written here and elsewhere regarding BA cabin crew salaries, would you all love it as much for £20k per year instead of £30k?
I suggest this as the above salary would bring the job more in line with those expected from careers directly related to the qualifications obtained - no doubt, there are some who could earn more elsewhere and truly enjoy the job, but the question stands. Just playing Devil's Advocate, no offence intended.....
