For those who think that an agreement is an agreement and we can't make it up on the day, have you ever heard of "due to operational requirements"?
Glamgirl, I'm sorry to disappoint, but you can't make it up on the day. What you may be willing to do others may not. So who makes the final decision about going the 'extra mile.' Certainly not you. Indeed, even you will have a limit to what you believe is reasonable.
Operational requirement is as vague as it sounds and is used and abused as any grey area might be by BA but it can't be used to justify making it up on the day.
Agreements are there for very good reason and I'm not saying that some changes aren't urgently needed. However, ignore your working agreements at your peril.
