Seems that the nail's been hit right on the head. Some of you guys really need to take a long cold shower. While you're at it, also take a look in the mirror!

BA..Are you having the day off or are you at work?

Because if you were at work and using company computers to access the internet for personal use you would be at risk of facing a disciplinary hearing.

Other Critics

Pax are getting it in the neck and suffering a third rate product because of failing IFE,old aircraft and a woeful ontime departure record
Now if you were one of Dixons beloved shareholders and took the price that Dixon recommended to you...you have been well and truly rogered.
It appears that the future holds around $6.50 to $7.50 a share.
So
The Pax Get done over
The shareholders get done over
The staff get done over
Mr.Lert still thinks Dixon is wonderful.
Get a few chardies into some of middle management on duty travel and it becomes obvious he is loathed.
Every time I go to work I am threatened intimidated and harrassed by my manager.
Why?
Not because I dont do a great job...but because I am seen as expensive.
How can I be expensive ?...I dont receive incentive bonuses.I am paid a good wage to do a good job.
I dont need all the rubbish that comes my way from management.

Yes, no or maybe? It's none of your fecking business.

Wrong. Do some research.

Get a few chardies into some of middle management on duty travel and it becomes obvious he is loathed.
How devious is that?

Every time I go to work I am threatened intimidated and harrassed by my manager.
Paranoid? If you don't like it, get another job if you can or take action against said manager. You do have remedies.

Well,BA as usual you feel it is your god given right to criticise others even though you have never done their job.

The company which feels it is ok to try and dismiss someone of more than 30 years standing over a trivial amount might not agree with your post.

Did you use a company computer during work time to access the internet for personal issues?

Thats right, a company piece of equipment and on work time when you are being paid to work for the company not to entertain yourself.

If you were at work when surfing the net I expect you to call security and stand down pending an enquiry and possible dismissal.

All I Dont/Do Want

I want to be given the resources to do my job well.
I do not want to be put in a position where I have to say to a customer sorry but we dont have any today.
I dont want to have to apologize for service failures that I have no control over.
I dont want to be worried about losing my job if I discover 2 Panamax in my jacket
I dont want to be given advice or criticism by some myopic moronic outsider called B A Lert.
Im not paranoid but my solicitor is

Lert,

I'm not making any comment pro or anti your views in this thread, except to just point out that, whilst it might appear 'devious' to squeeze some useful info (and honest impressions) out of someone by getting them loaded, it's a time-honoured practice. Business has been done that way for, oh, centuries. It's what keeps restaurants in any business district, in business.

Any competent manager who is worried about spilling a few beans when they get a couple under the belt should stick to water, a Blue or a shandy. Take a look next time you're in a bar at lunchtime or after school, with managers from any company and you'll see quite a bit of these being consumed - because a competent manager knows the ramifications of spilling such beans.

Thumbs down

it is ok to try and dismiss someone of more than 30 years standing over a trivial amount
It speaks volumes about the common-sense levels and intellect of some of the blue-collar rabble ranting and raving here that they can't see the irony in attacking Qantas for unlawfully dismissing an employee from the group they see as part of their problem while enthusiastically attempting to discriminate between someone who put in 30 years and "forgot" he had a pocket-full of chockies and someone who put in one, two or five years and "forgot" he had a pocket-full of chockies.

The militant boiler lot looking after themselves? I guess so.

Aren't you about 60yo and "retired", lowerLube? Don't you think you're a little old to be carrying on like you do here?

Dont Forget

Doggy Doo Doo.
Have a review of some of your ravings in this forum.
By your own definition you qualify as blue collar rabble.
Dont forget where you come from..someone will always remind you.

Nice. You're on track to have this thread shut down as you did the one on hostie-attitudes, cart. You lot really are quite poorly-bred, aren't you?

that is why he is so bitter about CC.......hah hah hah...............
The keen edge of that razor-sharp wit truly is something to behold.


Anyway, girls, this bloke has been been stripped of his dignity and dragged through the mud, all because he pocketed a few chockies. Why can't you just let the poor bastard pick up the pieces and move on?

Rather than re-visiting the entire sordid affair again and again, how about you all just let it go? It's OVER.

He got his job back; good on him. Now the guy probably wants his life back, not hear about the "opinions" of a poorly-spoken peanut-gallery on something he'd obviously rather forget.

Get lives, you tragic drama-queens. lowerLube - get a job, too.

To all Cabin Crew don't bother with little Scotty the Poo as his only intent is to close down threads with Cabin Crew issues.

If you read his other posts you will see what I mean.

He is insignificant and has a Walter Mitty complex.....he is a legend in his own mind....

you're quite right lower.
However scottydope amuses me!
His hatred for CC is astounding!
He must be related to BA Lert or he must have suffered a huge rejection from one of our TCM's
Please continue your diatribe ScungyDope....its an interesting sight into what happens when one does not take their medication on a regular basis.

C'Mon guys,don't bite to people like ScottyDoo.

They look at this as just a pilots site and don't want cabin Crew here.

As LL said they just want to inflame the posts and have the moderator lock the thread.

Do not bite,think of them as a hangover,if you ignore them and go on with your business ..in the end they will go away.
