This has been forwarded to me and is apparently the latest Bassa spin:
:
Today we hear from a good source that all pilots who complete a "cabin
crew" course automatically receive a GBP500 bonus, regardless whether they
ever operate as a cabin crew member.
And still Willie Walsh would have you believe this is all about cost
cutting?
We hope the pilots enjoy spending their bonus.
Remember the ballot closes on the 22nd of February, the result will be
made known that day, and the Branch meeting is on the 25th at Kempton
starting at 11am.
We hope you are all well and bearing up under all the bullying and
harassment BA seem eager to inflict.
Regards from all your BASSA reps. .
Without any doubt I can assure you that any staff member backing BA
is doing so to protect there future and not for a £500 return..
Most BA pilots I know are insulted by this statement, but this is probably what Bassa want from the nasty 'flight deck'.
Bassa members dont be fooled by lies from your reps, and in turn destroy your future and lifestyle....
