Orangewing - have noticed that you have not replied to me on JetBlast... Figured out who I am yet?????
It does seem quite unfair to say that we do sod all on a sector, as I've recently completed a gla/bcn and spent the entire 10hrs on my feet as we were full on all four sectors coupled along with stag nights, hen nights and birthdays! Could not feel my feet for days as they were numb with the pain!!!
However, there are days at work where, granted, we have it very easy!! It is all part of the job - good times with the bad!
We could say the same about you guys, that you have the pleasure of sitting on your backsides all day, but most of us are realistic to know that you work hard to get us on the ground safely. (Notice in the bar at the end of the day that all the cabin crew want to do is sit and all the pilots want to do is stand????)
700 - Please go the flying club, I will be honoured to buy you and orangewing a drink!!!!!!!!!!
Beryl - Easyjet is fun. As Girt bar said, it has it good points and bad. Good ones are that the entire crew are great fun, pay and promotion are very reasonable and if you can bare to wear orange, well then, all the better!!
It does feel that management sometimes let you down, but the less you have to do with them, the better. Rosters are also becoming more stable, and the nightstops are reappearing.
Basically it is like marmite - You'll either love it or hate it!!
