Why don't they just mail out the text version along with our notification email that the roster has been published? It would be about 3 kb each max and would save the servers being deluged while we all try to download countless megs of data just to access that 3kb of data which tells us what we are doing next month.
Anyone here long enough to remember they used to deliver master roster for ALL ranks and ALL fleet to our mail box?
Later on, you only received master roster for your fleet.
After that, in the name of tree-saving (or their bonus), it was further reduced to a A4 page of your personal roster.
During SARS, they only mailed out e-version roster, so that you could print it yourself at home. It was suppsoed to be a "temporary measure" to help the company to "survive" (most guys still used the company printer to print their rosters anyway!). Of course, just like the amenity kits for bussiness and first class ID Pax, once it is taken away during the downturn, it is gone forever!
Now, you don't even get e-version roster, you have to log on to intra-cx and download it yourself!!
What next??
Do you see a trend here, not just for our roster, but for about every benefit you have in CX???
