Well said Worldwidewolly, also spare a thought for the Cabin Crew and how they have been treated over the last 10 years, not having contracts renewed if sick for more than 2 days in a years......have to come in and report to crew control face to face if sick ( I mean our crew control were Doctors ????)........punishment details........hormonally crazy CC management. I always felt more for their treatment than my own........now the only faces i see down the back are eastern european......so i guess the Paddys, brits, scots and spanish had enough shoe leather in their teeth.
