Hey, come on guys, lets not slag these people off, they really believe they have to make stand. Ask yourselves the question, what would you do if you were in a similar position? I don’t go along with strike action but unfortunately alot of the people at BA don’t have much of a choice.
It’s not that long ago that it was us, the cabin crew that were on strike. I can tell you it was the worst period of my adult life. As a memeber of the one of the very powerful unions BASSA or Cabin Crew 89 you had to go along with the majority. Unless you have been in that position and experienced it you have no idea what you are talking about and making sweeping statements about groups of people is stupid. The vast majority are hating the situation and dreading the strike going ahead, hopefully it won’t. Sure there are some very selfish, greedy individuals that are just after what they can get and yes we have an extremely good package of benefits but that is one of the things we originally joined the company for. I can’t comment about the % they have been offered as I’m not sure of all the details but it’s not all about money. There’s always two sides to every story but I can assure you that most of those invloved and considering strike action will be obsolutely s******g themselves!!!!
