Plal343,
I am a CSD with BA and have been for six years.I do not discuss on an open forum what I earn.The only person who knows that is my wife,some day I'll tell her I get allowances!!
. All I will say is that after six years I am still well short of what CM thinks.If I was on that I'd be very happy and might trade in my S REG Astra Estate(I don't even have a Labrador!!).
I am very happy with what I get and tend to think I work for it unlike the always friendly to Cabin Crew CM!!
. I do not only give out GPM's
, I as any crew who know me work for the first 3-4 hours in both World Traveller and Club,do any on board paperwork 15-20 minutes max!!(for those CSD's who make it last all flight),lazy gits!!.
I then do the standard walk-a-bouts and include juice rounds in that.Change the films two to three times.
During the flight I also have a chat with the pax and the crew and make arrangements for downroute ,never forgetting to include my flight crew
COLLEAGUES .
Oh yes I nearly forgot then I do the GPM's(myself
).
Just for the record CM I always try to get to the bar first and buy the first round and get the ball rolling.Please don't say it's a cheap round because I'm the only one there!!.
I enjoy the job,I enjoy coming to work and feel very lucky to be in the best position in the airline(in my opinion).I have worked on the ramp and in check in but never thought once about the pay as it was always the job I wanted.
CM,the truth please,are there really so many lazy CSD's out there.If so tell them preferably in front of the crew!!.
WTDWL.
