FR are the lowest of the low. The bottom of the bucket. It is impossible to comprehemnd how people consider this a worthwhile airline to work for.
Thank God for airlines that have Pilots who have backbone. Such as BA. Without guys prepared to strike to preserve T's and C's, we would be in a World of pain.
Don't forget your snadwiches, water, teabags and of course your own gash bag to put it all in. You will get none of these either.
I hope you feel your £70000 training costs to become a Prostitute were worth it !!
