FLIP FLOP FLYER
May I say what a smart and mature post.
That is what I did and it has worked for me.
My only small grumble it that If you feel you would be doing a job which is lower than yourself, then why do it??????
As for the other posters, do actually know what a ALM is their for.
Lets run through it in the style of Hong Kong Fooey (I have had a drink or two as I’m flying in 10 hours. Sorry I mean 50 feet.)
Is he/she their to load the bags???????????? NO
Is he/she their to load the freight?????????? NO
Is he/she their to raise the paperwork???????? NO
Is he/she their to check in the PAX?????????? NO
Is he/she their to drive the ACHE????????? NO
Is he/she their to unload it all????????? NO
Is he/she their to be the last independent check and their in a worse case stop a multi million pound aircraft and lets not forget the passengers and crew making a small hole in the ground?????????????????? YES.
Did we not go through a number of air crashes a few years ago? Which I regret to say saw the loss of both crew and people on the ground through loads moving in flight.
Do I need to go on? Movers do a hard job and disserve the respect and help. Some bring the whole trade down with their childish and uneducated verbal diarrea.
If any one would like to be a ALM civy or military, go for it, it’s a great life and a great job. The only quality that you really need is to know your own limits
My fingers hurt now so Ill shut up
All spelling mistakes are because I can’t spell and I type too fast for my finger.
