The Job Has Changed

I understand their reluctance.The community in general either has no understanding of what Cabin Crew do or a distorted view of it.Hollywood portrays us as vacuous twits.I have been flying for 22 years,the job has changed enormously.Airlines in general see CC as a necessary evil.I would not apply for the job as it is today.It is today a young single persons job.Stay for 5 years have fun, get out, is the way to do it if you are going to do the job at all.
High attrition rates ,new faces is what the airlines want.The damage to your health is enormous and fatigue takes on a new dimension.Your life at home disappears.
Probably not the response you wanted....Sorry
