Bulgaria Ski discussion board

Tom that is a fair wage that's my point. You know what you are going to earn when you start a job and I would say if you do this sort of job you do it because you want to travel. I have had to take a large pay cut this year because I am self employed, what can I do about it Bugger all, but it was my choice to become self employed and do what I do so tough titty for me. That's life I am afraid. They should be bloody grateful that they earn a pretty decent wagea nd a few perks with it and realise that the hey days of mega perks and easy working is way behind them.

Training involves opening and closing doors and serving meals and cleaning up. Very little else for the average steward.

They have been offered between 2% and 7% increase for 75% of the workforce. More flexible working hours and BA have never ever refused to sit down and negotiate. What do Unite think they will achieve by holding 1 million people to ransom.

Sorry Tom - I know you are doing your best to see some reason to all this - but try telling that to a 6 year old who has been looking forward to his holiday for months!

Striking in any industry in my mind should be illegal. This country has gone to the dogs and BA have flown us there!

I hope they all have a thoroughly dreadful Xmas - as will many of their loyal passengers thanks to their selfish actions.
