I have a question for you guys based on the previous post. Although not a fan of FR at all, and a humble student ppl with any potential to get into a boeing now removed, I have a problem with comments like the previous post.
Paying for own uniforms, type ratings, food and water. What is your problem? I wrk in aviation, but on the ground, sadly, and the only consession my company make is a new pair of safety boots every year. I have to buy my own lunch, pay for any training courses I need ( I am paying for my own ppl even though it will be used for business travelling where I can) I paid for my own CPC and my own HGV 1, and buy my own clothes. I am not poorly looked after, I have had this wherever I have worked.
Please stop castigating FR for these practices, although expensive at times and not in line with other carriers, they are a norm in the real world working enviroment. Get over it, don't like it then apply to BA!
