PC767,
I think we shall agree to disagree on the attendance. Personally I believe the source I have and, as this is an anonymous, public forum, revealing that is not really cricket. I also choose not to believe the BASSA chair person. My choice. I too am very aware that being 'sub' unions is the only thing that has kept BASSA afloat over the last few rounds of negotiation by, occasionally, providing some negotiating professionalism.
On that I am quite happy to draw a line under the attendance issue.
4 more days and then we will see what miracles BASSA has wrought.
As to the temp issue, I wonder why, in the current cabin climate, the attrition rate could be high? Possibly due to animosity within the work place? If flight crew are getting lambasted on the BASSA forum for having a differing opinion what chance do temps have in the cabin?
