Very good post

Also reading the cc forum, it is a bit unbelievable, as to CC inteligence, I would guess that higher pay than those outwith BA would be related to a bit higher education and thought process

One states, How can BA afford to pay us doing nothing, whilst New Fleet has doubled and flying?

HELLO Err well being an ingnorant nerk myself I would guess, because you will not be there anymore being paid

Another has lost Staff Travel free but commutes 5500 miles a twelve hour flight before the start of shift, is this legal rest time CAA

How many multi lingual university grads would give their right arm for CC employment rather than burger flipping AND may even get a free flight home to see their loved ones

Having said that, Burger flipping is much more work than trolley pushing dishing out sarnies
Hells Bells BA Crew do not even have to go round flogging scratch cards every half hour

In the current finacial climate, I would tend to get my head down and work, thankfull that I was not on the end of a Job Centre queue awaiting my £64pw giro (oops sorry, at the end of a job centre queue for nothing the first six months PROVING I had looked for gainfull employment )

Whilst the mortgage protection scheme proves not worth the paper it is written on

Child care at £300 per week, is contractual, ie you can not just quit you are obliged to pay to the end of the year

Become unemployed and it is a right bloody destruction of your life, no home, but you can live on the half price sale of your original home until you are down to the last £3k and begin to get your £64pw job seekers allowance

Not really a problem as you join the 2.5 Million others, most immigrants find work picking potatoes in rural areas for up to £215 pre tax per 37hour week

IA this will be your outcome Check it out
