intimidatepilot,
I've been in Ryanair long enough to see CC coming and going. I am aware of the money FR makes out of training the CC. I am also aware of the fact that if you don't do the job as they want you to do it, you're out. That's why such huge CC turnover in FR: because the majority don't see the reality of it, they are so disappointed, they find it very hard work and can't cope.
Do i agree with every decision the management makes? No, not at all. But it's a job, it pays the bills. Better have one than none. And I have my good and my bad days, but oddly enough for some, i enjoy it.
How does your conditions compare to someone in a similar role in a company, that respects it's employees and are willing to negotiate on terms and conditions.
I would suspect it's pretty much the same elsewhere. I never, once, had been picked on by the management and be treated like a door mat. I go in, do my job, come back and pick up the money at the end of the month. Guess i'm good at what i do methinks...
Over to you gentlemen.
