You may have to try a bit harder than that!

Try using English and not 'SHOUTING' in CAPITAL LETTERS!

Good luck anyway, .......... what sort of promotion is it!

They might like you to use good English and develop a few points a bit past single sentences.

Plus, with a title like that, I'd say it's intentionally open-ended i.e. it's you presentation to do what you like with.

Just some thoughts.

V1R

P.S. Sorry I'm in a harsh mood tonight

Cool

Suggest you have a look under

BA selection

If you are already working for BA then you should probably have already realised that they love to hear their own 'propganda' back. Read anything produced in house & be sure to include multipe references to the current 'mission statement' or whatever the powers like to call it nowdays...

Just curious, but what promotion exactly are you going for ( as it might help other PPRuNeR's in providing meaningful info for you....

Itīs on the screen saver on every BA computer in CC and Waterside. Bloody annoying it is too. Why not have a decent screen saver of an aeroplane or something? Ah, I was forgetting, most Watersiders have forgotten BA earns its revenue from passengers getting on aeroplanes. Donīt want to offend the poor dears.

timgad,

You say you are going for promotion within BA yet you don't have a clue by what the mis-management mean by "the BA way."

Well you must have been sleeping on the job over the last few months as we have all been overdosed with all sorts of junk over that time spelling it out. Pravda, intranet, stuff sent to your home.

Have you not been OOF'd yet? You get another 5 hours worth. I just can't imagine how you can be in BA but not know.

BristolRe : I was lucky enough to get 2 hrs of RE uninterrrupted time a couple of weeks ago. Very interesting it was too.Certainly cleared a few misunderstandings and half truths up. (Mainly from Flt Ops) I came away feeling that at least my (and hopefully some others issues) were heard. I felt I had more effect than half a dozen GMMīs . He certainly canīt say he doesnīt know how some of the pilots feel . Fingers crossed, eh?

Perhaps our 'timgad' is a baggage handler who has forgotten to put his ear protectors on? Hence his tendancy to SHOUT?

Is there a BA way for baggage handlers? Do you have to write three essays..
