He then went on to ask me what did they do
So he didn't know?
Why does that not surprise me...
Well done for being proactive, farrari. Expect a run-around and lotsa duck-shoving, best of luck.
mach2male,
most AQUIS personnel consider crew to be "up themselves"
With a certain amount of justification, too. SOME crew (note that I didn't generalise) are revolting, and would still be revolting if provided with their own door, blanket clearance and a key to the airport.
AQUIS employees fall into a particular demogaphic.
Yes they do, until the Foot and Mouth threat in 2001 all AQIS employees were required to hold a university degree in a relevant discipline. Many officers still do, a number have Honours degrees or doctrates. Does that apply to cabin crew?
The strong bogan element in AQIS (note spelling, it's U-less like QANTAS) has nothing to do with their intelligence or demographic, whatever that may mean. Much of their indifference is because they are short staffed and demotivated, which is the quickest way to achieve a group wide lousy attitude.
This seems to have happened to (a certain) airline's staff too.
