Shanwickman,
I am glad to see that his/her (?) particularly odious remarks in the first post have been edited and removed.
With bigoted remarks like that, it is very hard to take the poster seriously.
While I am not a proponent of Ryanair, I find it incredible to see every mention of their name arouse such open hostility.
There is no question that they are not highly regarded from an HR perspective, and offended staff members have a right to air their views.
But many of the posters seem to have no connection with the airline, just a strong will to knock it, every chance they get. What is their agenda ? If they have nothing to do with the airline, should they not leave fighting the HR war, to those that have ?
All of us in the aviation industry have an interest in T&C's, but I don't see Ryanair staff on this forum with open hostility towards other airlines.
Also, I find it amazing how two different people watching the same programme can come away with such different views.
