Ground Handling

[Keyboard]

Ex Servant, I know some crews do appreciate the job we do but we do find alot who look down on us. Just because we are not paid big salaries some take the attitude we are not worthy. I really enjoy the job I have in ground handling the pays not great but its the challenge I enjoy I get a real buzz when we all acheive on time or early departures, but a little thankyou now and again would not go amiss, not so much from crews we all know they do appreciate us at the time, but the GOC's/CSA's depending on the airline would be nice. Our training for staff is 3 weeks so instead of 1 week for crews even it they spent 2wks on the ground with OPs/ramp/pax ser/dispatch it would really let them see what goes on. Bottom line iIt only works when we work as a team and not against each other.
