Well, try staffing problems, rosta chaos and pay changes (not being paid for 6 weeks could break anyone).
Never known a company where 99% of staff are looking for another job. Speaking to them i am surprised that some of them are even human with the stuff they have to put up with at the moment. They seem to get the c*** from all sides. They do their job and then get blasted for queues (when its not their fault), when they dont do their job its a disciplinary. They are in a no win situation and come 1st May i can see either the system failing totally or the staff dropping like flies with exhaustion and illness. I hope its some of the latter cos i would dread it to be the former.
From talking to them it seems they are trying to make the best out of a bad job and in some cases its the staff from the other depts (LBA, servisair, aviance etc) that give them most of the s*** they have to put up with. In my view the staff should stick together no matter what area of expertise. Security are doing a job just like the others and dont need the flack from other staff, we all get enough of that from the passengers .
Its a necessity no matter how much of a pain it is and we all have to go through it. Argue about it and quite frankly it makes the procedure a lot more hassle, dont and we all get through quickly and easily. A smile can make someones day and we as staff should try to do it a lot more to other staff, because we are all working under the same c*** condtions.
I always try to smile and sometimes i laugh!!! If i am not then the s*** is hitting the fan! And i assume that servisair staff are much the same. Although all the new staff seem friendly (give or take a couple). What you must remember is that its not personal, when a bag is searched its because it has to be, not because the security plod dislikes you, and if you are searched more than once in a day, then its the luck of the draw. Just keep a look out for the ones you 'like' or get on with and just be polite to those who you think are 'hard faced', because i can tell you even the plods within security will distance themselves from collegues like that!!!
