ah, the age discrimination issue again..

In my Company older flight attendants work harder than most younger flight attendants...old habits die hard I suppose! They´re old school. At least the ones I´ve had the pleasure of working with. They pay attention to detail, which in pax eyes makes a world of difference.
Please show some respect to the people who´ve turned what was a job with a limited time span into a professional career. They fought long and hard for what we take for granted today. Those of us who wish to fly up to retirement age should be very grateful to them.
Some asian carriers and their age discrimination nonsense are an embarrassment to one of the most basic human rights. The right to work and provide for yourself and your family.
It scares me to read some of your posts. If you´re willing to age discriminate, what´s next? Flight Attendants shouldn´t be married? Shouldn´t be gay? Shouldn´t be black? Shouldn´t be religious? Shouldn´t have any children of their own?

now, back to my cave

p.s. edited: spelling
