Temporary crew are being shafted and used by the company. This year, they have been told that if they go sick or do not report for duty, their contract will be dismissed immediately. Look at what happened to some of them last year when BA decided to dismiss them half way through their 11 month contract.
It is not hate but they are being brought back to cover for a possible strike. BA, and surely others, might claim that they are being brought back because there's an increase to our schedules. Why should I be welcoming to people who have been employed with the sole purpose to break a strike which I am participating in?
I was recruited by BA when there was no industrial action. When ex-temporary crew were recruited to WW in 2007 and 2008, I had no issues with it as they were fantastic to work with but they were also employed because there were crew shortages. They were not recruited to break a strike.
