I have just flown with a CSD who is frightened to go out with cabin crew because she was a non-striker. Consequently she stays in her room, is lonely and has been reduced to tears on several occasions by deliberate and spiteful acts on the aircraft designed to undermine her authority. She has asked to downgrade her status to purser where she will be less of a target but this has been refused. She is very stressed, now dreads going in to work and is contemplating leaving the company after 21 years. At work she appears cheerful hard working and a pleasure to work with. What a waste.
Maybe this gives an indication to her, and everyone else, what you get from BA for giving them your support. Absolutely nothing. Management can't be bothered with its cabin crew.

On the other hand, why should they downgrade her status to purser? Many would oppose it because of the huge amount of surplus of pursers at the moment.
