Manchester - 7
According to the rumour mill the phrases 'berserk', 'insane' and 'deranged' were being bandied about regarding saturday's Ground Level Checkin shenanagins. As 96er says some people would rather have a go at young girls on checkin than aim the same level of abuse at say Baggage handlers with the attendant risk of a well-deserved black-eye.
Sad to see yet another example of 'one rule for one, one rule for another', rest assured that had that been a passenger abusing staff in such a way then they would be swiftly aquainted with one of MAN Plod's Finest Residential Overnight accomodations . .bucket supplied (and unlike many airlines, no extra charge!).
Pity that the abundant signs indicating that 'Abuse towards staff will not be tolerated' doesnt extend to those who are supposed to be part of the same 'team'
