Swampy 147 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 the problem with the BA strike is they cant see there on a hiding to nothing the more they strike the more it cost BA so the number crunchers then start looking at cost saving less planes, less safety and less cabin crew lot of redundancys and to take it all the way no more BA sold to virgin for a nominal fee £1 this could be new labours version of the miners strike You're not wrong. Yet again the employees are suffering because of the employers incompetence. Virgin at least would know how to run it properly so the analagy with the miners strike not quite there.......Good attempt tho' Tops! rgds Swampy activistning Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) I cant imagine that BA is such a bad company to work for and I'll bet the money is half decent. I don't think they can be compared with miners who worked for low wages for a national company and in a dangerous environment. I'll bet BA staff get decent wages and pension and a pretty cushy working environment. Far better conditions than most people. Edited March 30, 2010 by Nik_B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Cabin Crew Wages I recon over 30 grand for serving drinks is bloody good money. I was earning less than that working 14 hour days in the Sahara desert, Algeria. The conditions were horrible, food barely eddible and not much in the way of safety.
