You know, nothing gets up my nose quite as much as someone calling an employment practice "Slavery" (except, perhaps, comparing anyone someone doesn't like to the Nazis.)

Millions of human beings were abducted from their homes, shoved into horrific slaving ships, many dying excruciating deaths on the voyage, only to be live out their lives in poverty and humiliation, often separated from their families as they were sold like cattle, and subject to savage beatings if they transgressed.

You didn't get to give three months notice to no longer be a slave.

Immoral Sheiky? It is immoral to use the word slavery as you do, as it is completely disrespectful to the millions who endured trhe real thing.

Do you wear Reebok's or Nike's? Wear clothes from, well, just about anyone? MUCH closer to slavery than being an Emirates FA. Conscientiously objected to the rag trade Sheiky? Or just a hypocrite?

If this is true it's very bad management, and an indictment on our Cabin crew leadership.

But lets not talk complete ****e, shall we?
