I can't say that I'm surprised about the outcome of the ballot.

Some were probably taken by surprise of the strike dates but surely some of the voters must have realised that a strike action can take place 7 days after the ballot is closed and the results are announced. There has been discussion about when it should take place and concerns about the strike taking place over Christmas and New Year.

I actually feel sick over all of this and not looking forward to be going into work tomorrow. Even less than before because the next few days will be very hard to face our passengers!
I wouldn't worry too much about facing your passengers, you're not likely to have very many, as they will all be re-booking with airlines that are reliable. Harsh I know, but fair!!

Not knocking you, but there are lots of other jobs you could take up... erm!!
