Just to add my twopence.
I joined from a reputable operator for the chance of flying longhaul on a fairly modern piece of kit.
What I get is in the words of Catherine Tates OAP character " What a load of ole schit"
When I joined it was prior to the AIndia contract and was good to fair with not alot of work loads of Standbys which suited me as i live close to my base and 4 trips a month albeit 25 hour trips.
We were fed with ideas of BGI Vegas etc and could happen yet.
But Torontos there n back absolute crazy, When I operate a 8 hour flight the least I expected was to get off and overnight with the usual fun along with it. NOT to proceed thru a terminal and check in again in an economy seat to position back to UK. Utter CRAP
Now we have bullets to Capetown to content with.
I want this company to do well but some horrors have been happenng.
Real Time bullying
Constant Fatigue
Dread going to work
Jumped up Supervisors
Flawing of Cap371
Regular Discretion
Chaotic Crewing at times
Mnagement apparent hate of Crew
Insecure People who use Draconian Methods to abuse Cabin Crew
List is endless
Ive been around a while and have noticed how everyone seems to need "approval" from some dip in someother department to assist us.
WE are adults and a hell of alot more proffessional than credited for. You give us a 767 and then dont trust us with treating passengers as they should be treated.
Grow Up GlobespanK if you want staff and want to survive past April.
Think about it..........
