That works out to between UK17000 and 20000 per year in your hand which is not bad to me for a semi skilled position. If its not to your liking YOU do something about it by getting more qualified and finding a higher paid job or go to Virgin.
No one owes you a living in this world its up to you to make your own way.
I have personally experienced very high levels of service from BA staff but also very low, and the low seems to be becoming the standard these days. I have heard about the galley talk being reffered to as galley FM, fine we all need to let off steam about our jobs some times but dont broadcast it to the customers who pay your wages.
I still regularly recieve high levels of service from other airlines
The only losers in this strike wil be BA staff, Willie will just advertise for more cabin crew who can be trained in 6 weeks I understand, and hand pick the senior ones BA wants for the required number of senior crew.
