I've seen the occasional apprentice in one of those bins.

It does seem to be a bit of a tough punishment. It took for a QF flightie to chew off a movie star in the fwd dunnies before getting sacked !!

Actually Cactus there's more ......
- one QF hostie got the boot because she didn't handle the stress of an engine incident on her first flight last november while another suffering a similar incident was placed on leave without pay instead of workers comp.....the kid in the locker was a dumb thing to do (although I s'pose many would suggest its a great place for kids on a plane) - Sometimes though I can't help thinking the CC are easy targets. |
Comment on the Herald website of the complainant:
"Large housing commission face"!! ROFLMAO:} |
..............ya gotta love a human interest story. The kid now suffers & has to sleep with mum, any wonder the kid now suffers!!! Give me the bin any day!:E
There's some very funny posts here:ok: But in all seriousness what has our society come too? Sure the incident wasn't the cleverest thing to do perhaps BUT terminating the FA/CC for such a stunt was also wrong. I would have thought some corrective training of sorts would have sufficed but no like most Co's these days sack 'em & get the problem as far away from them as possible. God when I think of the things that we as kids got exposed to like being whacked hard at home & at school. I was locked in my room for many hrs & at times in the dark (belted if I turned the light on!) I didn't end up with enormous mental anguish, I shudder to think what we are breeding these days, sad really, the whole event is sad. VB should be ashamed of themselves for dealing with this event in a grubby cheap way. Wmk2 |
what parent out there hasn't playfully thought about and/or pretended to put their toddler in an overhead bin? But if anyone likes to strengthen up an OHB to handle my 90kg, 6'2" self, I'll happily get up there zzzzzz......... Get over yourself, love. |
I've seen the occasional apprentice in one of those bins. While IMO it was a dumb thing to do, surely a kick in the arse and an all-staff email about not sticking kids in lockers would suffice? I thought Virgin were into this sort of inane theatricals, it's not surprising if one of the staff goes a little far with the flair thing. It's no dumber than an aborted 'stunt' a Virgin crew tried a while ago, where they all brought along replica pistols (pretty real looking ones) and were going to stage a fake hijack on their flight :eek::eek:. Pre 9/11, but the concept still displayed an outstanding lack of judgement. They didn't get sacked, in fact Virgin management were pretty huffy with the AFP for kyboshing it until they threatened to start charging people. |

You can fit a small Catering guy in too, although it needs to be a team effort 'cos they tend to kick a bit. Blankets are useful. 1) A dwarf, or maybe two, in the same locker 2) An Irish CEO 3) Clive Palmer 4) Ralph Feines and a hostie of his choosing 5) 120 Gerbils, 20 litres of baby oil (DG compliant),a trombone and a naked John Travolta and Branson CJ |
Thats GOLD Cactus. :ok:
Needed a good belly laugh |
I Was told that GD needed a lot of convicing to sack LR . It was not his inclination to do so . but a certain HR manager conviced him she ho go . Jealousy!
|
Any of the 4-stripers fit in the overhead bin? :E
|
Yes, but you have to remove their wallets first!! :O
|
Really ? crying for days ? well what were you doing to let the FA have the child in the first place ? I hope the Union backs this guy as they should , losing your job is a terrible thing , teasing with kids is commonplace to settlle them . But Oh lets get a chance at a few thou compo and media coverage , I could be on 60 mins , a distressed Mum , devastated , until the cash come and then........................
