And a week in the bahamas....

alright son.......

Sat 1 dont forget to take the kettle ! Cup of Tea Son?

Why oh why are we digging at a certain person within the ramp(cup a tea son),all he is, is the monkey who has to follow orders from the higher preists and they have there hands up the :mad: of all of them.

Now,about the pay talks,since we have lost alot of buisness from STN through no fault of our own then what are we looking at % wise,3%,4% what! We need to keep it sweet and not to go overboard with stupid ideas.Let us all harmonies and agree on something as important as this.

No diggin at anyone, surely??

Its a well known phrase on the ramp now?:ok:

That sounds like a great idea........ loose all your business, and then start pay negotiations.

Tugnbar...lose Business And Ask For Rise.
 

CANT SEE THE PROBLEM ASKING FOR A RISE..WE STILL HAVE TO LIVE...I DONT THINK THE GIRL ON THE TESCOS CHECKOUT WILL GIVE THE STUFF AWAY AND I STILL HAVE TO GET TO WORK EVEN IF THERE IS F:mad:K ALL TO DO WHEN I GET THERE.....START AT 5% AND WORK UP.DOUBLE TIME FOR SUNDAYS AND ANY O/T AFTER MIDNIGHT.
:ok:

South Side 1...menzies
 

I WAS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF STN LAST WEEK AND SEE A MENZIES BAGGAGE EXPRESS VAN .....MAYBE ON A SCOUTING MISSION.
:cool:

Menzies
 

Sorry I think I have entered the servisair page.

Maybe GH was right about Menzies, more fuel for the rumour mill.

white shirts
 

Can i ask why people are being judged on the colour of the shirt they wear, alsmost racist like dont you think. Would it matter if they wer blue shirt then:=

Shirt Colours
 

No judgement being made on anyones colour of shirt be it grey, blue, white, green or yellow. Just making an observation that it seems like a servisair gathering (not that there's anything wrong with that).

From whats being said it sounds like servisair are having a usual clean up !
How oftern will they let one of their customers go to another handling agent (hardly ever).
But every now and then they have a clean up, loose all the contracts that are low payers, alot of agro and in general not worth it.
This reduces overheads, penaltys etc and then after a while go for everything again once the bank balance is looking good. Ryanair sound familiar.:cool:

Its been a long time since I've heard someone say "shink", brings back good memories.:ok:

:ok:

You need to put your views to your union shop stewards--assuming YOU are in the union!!!!!

HI GUYS, THOUGHT I,D JOIN IN ON THE RUMOUR MILL. JUST TO LET YOU KNOW S/AIR TALKING TO AT LEAST 3 AIRLINES AT THE MO. THINK YOU LOT SHOULD START AT 6% BEFORE YOU GET SHAFTED. :ok:

Sat 1 And Are You In The Union.
 

NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU....mate!!!.....I THOUGHT ONE IDEA OF A UNION WAS ....TO BE UNITED....CANT SEE THAT UNLESS SOMEONE BRINGS IN A FEW GALLON OF SUPER GLUE........LET ME KNOW IF THINGS CHANGE.

WHAT YOU NEED IS SOMEONE WITH B:mad:KS

trap2
 

Well known phrase!!!!!! Don't be stupid,it's a typical dig at a certain person but enough of that,it's boring.That's the problem with servisair,rumours,the company thrives on it.Do not believe anything until you are chocking,stepping,power and the infamous CONES!

As i was in talks with a certain person from the higher level of the company,he was telling me some things that i do believe are very correct at present time: 1/ Loss of certain contracts
2/ Loss of workers(temp)
3/ Reshuffle of shifts

and must'nt forget the big one-REDUNDENCIES

As the new year approaches we shall see what lays in store for the colleagues of a once great company-SERVISAIR.

He might be a very nice person but his head is way up in the clouds im afraid.Not once has the company started at 6%,maybe over a 2yr deal with other little clauses chucked in for good measure but honestly,think about it mate.

Hey diamond......lighten up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey diamond, do you wear a white shirt by any chance? My head may be in the clouds but at least its not up my ar:mad:se.

does diamond like to keep his hair......just so?????? hhmmmmmmmm

Servisair Stn
 

I hope the employees of Servisair don't fall into the trap of a low pay increase with all this gloom and doom about,what Servisair management will not tell you is what they have in the pipe line for next year.
Having a low pay increase or agree to have no increase will not save jobs. I think 5% or 6% is about right if you consider the cost of living increases in the last year ie mortgage rates ,petrol,and weekly shopping bill, Gas ,Elec to rise early in the New Year by 10% due to cost of oil we also know that your Council tax will rise by over the rate of inflation.
Go for fair increase because the company could not care less about you or your family when it comes down to it, being loyal and working hard counts for nothing if they have get rid of people.

You're having a laugh tgwu but there again it doesn't surprise me

That sounds like a chat up line SAT1, what does that have to do with aviation;)

Dude....calm down down son,don't forget it's only a forum....I understand where your coming from as with the figure for the pay negotiations but all i was pointing out that if the union sits around the table and lays that figure down what do you think the management will do! I have my doubts but as they say,each to their own.

Hey you other two i am so chilled that im freezing so no need to worry about me my friends....i think you are all special in different ways:ok:

Point taken mate. Think the union will be banging their heads against a brick wall for any kind of rise but you've gotta start some where.:ugh:

Trap2...because the company has lost so many flights that are not always down to management but BAA the colleageus of S/A need to work together with the union to come to some agreement on a figure for the pay negotiations.
Reading GRIZZLERS comments shows the mentality of certain people who,if are actually in the UNION!!!!
SAT1 is probably a great person but loves to contribute something which he actualy doesn't know whats going on-no disrespect to you SAT1
AA are not happy with Swissport at this present time so maybe Servisair could possibly have talks with the company,who knows!!!!!!!hhhhhhhmmmmmmmm as SAT1 puts it.

Diamond Hanger why are AA not happy with Swissport then?

D-ABAA

diamond hanger
 

if u spent more time training the men instead of being a tea boy s/air would be a better place to work :=

its a shame
 

the union is weak .we have yes men strike now sticky this could be your finist hour .bring back andy b

AA are not happy with Swissport
 

Do you know who exactly in AA is not happy with Swissport? If there is any truth in this then I suggest they tell Swissport......:ok:

Wozzel???

Please post again in English this time, so I can understand what your saying, and lets not get personal, simply no need on here to name people:=

Through the grapevine my friend.....when your in a position to hear these things you automatically stand up and listen to the latest gossip but WHO! believes in rumours and gossip....DO YOU!!!!!

Hey wozzel...lovely piece of writing there...can't wait to see what happens:ok:

Trap 2... On The Move
 

I AM GLAD TO SEE THINGS HAVE CHANGED FOR YOU, I THINK YOU HAVE GOT IT RIGHT THIS TIME....NO NEWS FROM 747 HEAVY YET. YOU MIGHT SEE HIM IN THE CLOUDS.
:ok:

diamond hanger...cant wait to see what happens
 

THE SAME AS NORMAL.....:mad: ALL.....MORE CHANCE OF GETTING SIX NUMBERS UP.......( wednesday and saturday)

Diamond hanger, i never said s/air had lost any contracts that were down to managment you're putting words in my mouth..TUT.TUT:=. We all know that s/air has lost a lot of work through no fault of their own.Will be interesting to see what kind of deal the union can thrash out especially with these new contracts just around the corner...oops what am i saying:oh:........WOZZEL no names mate keep it friendly not personal.

Diamond hanger & the grapevine
 

DH im supprised that you would listen to rumours

Subject 117
 

Your very funny indeed!

Flexibility from a lot of others would be a change of shifts which almost seems certain, from what the union guys are saying, but find me 1 ramp guy who will work part time! :yuk:

Well im sure Subject 117 you will have a VERY hard time attempting to make part time roles within the ramp. I will stand from a distance and simply laugh.

D-ABAA

we have problems
 

well it seems to me there are a few problems within camp at servisair. if the managment are that bad why hasnt anyone sent an email to head office in manchester to let them know. A surprise visit could be made from the top, or they could just go on this website to read it for themselves.:ugh:

i must apologize
 

i must apologize it was not ment to be personal .i would just like to see the men get a decent pay rise.we work hard all year round rain or shine for peanuts ! never mind mite get a mince pie at christmas:ok:
