European crew..the discussion on nationalities was started in a post a week back when someone decided to write in with their opinion that a certain nationality from down south and to the left of N.Z is lazy, demotivated and has a bad attitude compared to other crew who take the job so much more 'seriously'.
All subsequent posts relating to that post have been in defense. Some posts were deleted by the moderator which is odd as given this is an EK crew discussion threaD and the topics are pertinant to our every day work.
However, for u to come across all vigilanti saying that we must refuse to work with lazy ass** crew and not tolerate this and that behaviour I say to you.....Chill-out!!!. Like, come on man, who appointed you as the God of cabin crew? Are you so objective that you can determine who is lazy and what should be tolerated and what should'nt be?If so you would be an SFS and not posting here. Its like after the business briefing your on a self appointed mission to save EK in the face of global recession....No one needs or wants another Grade II MR/MRS supercrew cos they themselves are pains in the a*se...Dude, it's not part of your job discription to judge other crews performance. (Sorry, some nationalities do like to work according to what is actually included in the job description)
THe attitude should be to do your job to the best of your abilty and MYOB unless ur SFS and if there are crew (regardless of nationality) not working as they should e.g staying down back in the galley etc then sooner or later they will be identified by the SFS. Thats what the SFS is for...not you/not other crew. Leave it that.
The only thing I agree with is lets be friendlier with each other but if we are at the point were we need to remind each other of that then thats where the problem is and lazy ass crew are secondary.
European Crew this isn't an attack on you but the attitute where you start to see other crew as lazy or second rate is dangerous and pisses me off. All crew have CCPCM's done on them so along with all the nationality bull s** which is previlant in EK at the moment lets not start he / she /they are lazy crap.
