Even at EK, yes the last eight months or so has been very difficult, what with having excess crew who are unpaid leave and the remainder of us buckling down and working more hours than we are used to. But that can only be a good thing as we are lucky enough to be employed at the end of the day. Compare ourselves to the so called "privileged" European airlines, it does not take a genius to work out that we are in a far better situation. One glance at the press and you'll see the likes of BA looking for any reason to cut costs and slowly cutting away its cabin crew's terms and conditions. We have to be thankful that ours are still all here intact. So, yes, we work more sectors than most, we work hard but for every one person who hates their job, I can guarantee that there are atleast ten others out there who would jump at the chance to work for us.
