Just when you thought this archaic, self-obsessed, money-grabbing union couldn't possibly wreck any more havoc, they do. In the first answer to BF's webchat today, on a question about introducing a bidding system for WW this is the reply:
We have looked at this and offered a new bidding system to Unite, but again this is not something they were interested in us pursuing on your behalf
What on earth gives them the right to act so unilaterally without an ounce of consideration for what the members want? I'm afraid if this doesn't make you see the wood for the trees, then nothing will. Unbelievable. Get out of the union now!
I am BA cabin crew and this is my own viewpoint and not that of BA.
