Ignorance is no excuse for some of the comments on here but this one from MIDMAN takes all the biscuits....
"As for your CSD friend who struggled to cope with working in the cabin and deal with issues during the flight, perhaps he/she could ask her manager for the support (training or demotion) that he/she obviously needs."
WHEN THE S*IT HITS THE FAN & YOUR JUGGLING TWO ROLES....... support from your manager on the ground won't help!!!
I take it the 'crew' who support imposition are short-haul and therefore haven't experienced a full load, 747 Hi-J, Faulty AVOD, etc, etc, & the flight crew are insisting on hourly walk arounds...... WAKE-UP!! It ain't working, our customers, our crew and our brand are being severely hit. Some on here who aren't willing/able to see the realities in the cabin are in
selfish denial of this FACT! If this continues we
all lose... period.
