you can't help yourself can you........
We work damn hard when there is catering onboard - perhaps you want even more crew removed and have to go-around everyday?
As for the fact that they have retained the crew matrix during the gate gourmet situation - its down to crewing and perhaps salary protection - if you had minimum crew every day ,some crew would lose 30-40% of their allowances ,as 50% of eurofleet are on £10k basic a year , that doesn't make things easy.
it is in no way our fault that there is no catering - that was bought upon us by a team of professionals...
and if it makes you feel any better,we only get paid £4.37 if we work between 1300 and 2000.
And ive worked plenty of flights with lower than normal levels recently, OF COURSE we wouldnt delay the flight for extra crew - thats plain rubbish.
You really dont know what you are talking about carnage,

if we DO have a turnaround break it is normally 40 mins - YOU are sat down all day , and we frequently do 11hr+ with no break.
And i'm not 'trotting' out anything... i can add up the hours on my roster ,and now ive fully accounted for my hours , how about you do the same for us to demonstrate your credibility ?
You probably dont like it because you are now working the way we always have....
You have a dreadful approach towards your fellow crew (which is unusual and worrying) , so i suspect that at some point you have been turned down by some object of your affection within the company....
Now go try and make yourself happy, your bank balance will swell considerably in 10 days time, whereas the crew you so love to mock's won't , so instead of printing rubbish on here , go and treat yourself
