I know mate... But if I were on shorthaul three years ago, I could have applied for (and maybe got) the role of Purser. A few weeks later I'd have been flying as an ICCM/SCCM. I might have had ZERO experience of team management.
So why couldn't I - if I even wanted to join Mixed Fleet as a CSM - basically go for the role of Purser (which happens to be called CSM) on this new fleet, just as I would have done on Eurofleet?
As it happens, I have people management skills in my previous role externally to BA, so this is largely hypothetical.
ETA :
(I especially like the attempt at punctuation in it.)
No disrespect to anyone, but this is standard of Bassa's publications. Duncan displayed superior punctuation, spelling and grammar skills in his daily updates, but it looks like whoever used to do the updates before Bedfont has taken over again.
