It's not difficult reading is it? read the thread in it's entirety before jumping in with comments about Aircrew needing fed for flight safety reasons and blood sugar levels blah blah, I never said don't feed em just asked why the very important sugar rich food they devour is free!
Now just because the bean counters are looking at your ivory tower don't get all arsey and start whingeing about groundcrew having t bars full of stuff and ring the mess for late lunches etc.
First of all in the JR's mess if you ask for a late lunch you will get zero choice, they will plate up a pile of chips, beans and a pie and zap it in the micro when you pick it up, apart from that even when you do get your late lunch you still have to pay for it!
Secondly you aren't seriously asking the people who make your aircraft airworthy to sustain themselves on whatever you may have left over ( 10 hour old sarnies, the odd chicken korma and a spare tray of doughnuts ) are you ?
There is a lot of avtur fuelled testosterone floating about this thread and some people are getting just a little miffed at my comments, tough!
The question is still there to be answered and it isn't about blood sugar, why do Aircrew get free food when nobody else does?
