As an ex-employee, I find this whole argument absolutely unbelievable.
At the end of the day everybody wants a job that will pay the bills etc. It does seem to me that no-one in the Cabin Crew department actually wants a job after November 2009. This should be fine as ex-Virgin CC should be available for training and fitting for a change of uniform. I am sure that there are a few FR CC who wouldn't mind a job where they do not have to pay for their uniform as well.
I think that you all have to wake up and "smell the coffee". If BASSA is happy to bring the company down, who will still have a job when BA has dissappeared? Answer: BASSA Reps.
I rest my case.
