Why do so many whinge and whine when we see some of the conditions enjoyed by certain cabin crew?
The following is copied from a web-site that sets out certain of the conditions enjoyed by Qantas Long-Haul flight attendants.
"Qantas Long Haul cabin crew enjoy the following conditions to just name a few: -
* Salaries substantially above the community average for working 22.85 hours per week.
* 6 weeks annual leave per year.
* A preferential bid system.
* A Pay Equalisation Agreement that protects salaries whilst on Reserve.
* A Slipping Formula that guarantees rest provisions whilst upline.
* First Class hotel accommodation whilst on duty.
* A Meal Allowance system that is amongst the best in the world.
* Redundancy arrangements that are far beyond legislated requirements.
* Maternity Leave provisions and Part Time employment access beyond what most employees in Australia enjoy."
That they should be so fortunate, yet they dare to constantly complain. Oh to work for an average of just 22.85 hours a week , or a bit over 4 hours a day based on a five day week, and get six weeks annual leave, not to mention quite long breaks at various cities around the world at their employers expense!
Time to get a grip of yourselves before the world realises just how fortunate and molly-coddled you really are.
