Shouldn't it be "take it or get sacked"...well it is as far as the cabin crew are concerned.
-------It shouldn’t be this way in terms of everybody and there should be no war in Iraq and no Dictators on this planet, but this isn’t the case. So you better get back to reality and the brutal reality is that, we can’t change anything here and we are not supposed to. We are only supposed to do the proper job, which is hard, I agree on that. This might be an unpopular opinion, but I agree with this policy as long as the management gives me a job and I will get paid for it. This is do to simple reason, because I am tired of thinking what the management could have done better and why have I lost my job.
There are some strange rules, but you know them and it’s only a matter of personnel discipline whether you follow them or not and as a consequence whether you going to get in troubles.
I would like to emphasize again that as long as the management is doing proper job and keep my job secured my tolerance level is variable until certain limit of course.
Maybe when the safety audit was conducted they forgot to take an indepth look at the rosters.
---------Well no comments on that, again as long as it legal I don’t have any objection.
Bear in mind that AAB even controls that side. Poor Bernard doesn't have any real say in what goes on.
---------Remember what happened in Europe particular with GB under Mr.
Neville Chamberlain
1937-40
CONSERVATIVE
Neville Chamberlain began his public career in 1915 in Birmingham, where he was born, as its lord mayor. In 1918 he became a member of Parliament. He served as minister of health in the ministry of Law (1923) and in Baldwin's government from (1924-29). He was chancellor of the Exchequer (1931-37) and followed Baldwin as prime minister in May 1937.
Prime minister at the outbreak of World War II, he attempted to establish peaceful relations with Hitler and Mussolini through a policy of appeasement. His approach was not without support, but it resulted in Eden's resignation as foreign secretary and generated bitter opposition from Winston Churchill.
Chamberlain engineered the Munich Pact in September 1938, negotiating with Hitler to settle the question of Czechoslovakia. The agreement signed by Britain, France, Italy and Germany gave the Sudeten, a resource rich area of Czechoslovakia, (one-fifth of the country on the German speaking border) to Germany with other areas going to Hungary and Poland. Returning in triumph to Britain at Heston Airport on September 30th, Chamberlain told a cheering crowd "I believe it is peace in our time." The peace did not last long. Germany took the rest of Czechoslovakia in March of 1938 and Chamberlain was cornered into guaranteeing Poland against attack. When Germany invaded Poland Britain declared war.
The handwriting was on the wall. Chamberlain's own party rebelled against him, forcing his resignation after British forces suffered defeat in Norway. Churchill was named prime minister in May of 1940. Chamberlain joined his cabinet briefly, resigned in October and died on 9 November 1940.
--------Taking the historical experience in to consideration, I would say we need a strong leader as England needed Mr. Churchill in order to succeed in that tuff competition and I am prepared to follow a strong leader. Do you want to feel comfortable loosing the battle and believe in your wishes, or do you want to win the battle, it’s up to you. As long as Mr. AAB is winning the battle, which he does for the time being, I don’t care what he controls. Every time requires an adequate leader.
A pity. The cabin crew deserve better.
--------Well, I wouldn’t differ between cabin and cockpit. I am sure you agree on that, it reflects the actual CRM concept doesn’t it?
Cheers
-------Once again, I would like to undermine that my motivation is purely egoistic.
