just to clarify on the postings on zapping..
it dont exist anymore in cabin crew.
there used to be times where the crew were really rough on u just because u are a junior.. but it had stopped abt 5 yrz back and itz a totally new culture for the dept.
for those who are gonna join us, wish u all the best.. those that had recently joined us, dont be too apprehensive abt it.. just maintain a proper attitude and a good working knowledge...
ur seniors dont zap or bitch anymore.. it just dont happen.. if therez corrections to be done, it might be done abruptly during the service.. but dont take it personally and tell urself that u are not gonna repeat the same mistakes again.. unfortunately, the job is very physical and time matters a lot to us that we dont wish to have the aircraft landing while the trays are not cleared.. so every mistakes that u make will be obvious to everyone..
if a new crew shows positive and good attitude, i dont see a reason why the seniors would be giving him/her a hard time. it only happens when the new crew shows a negative disposition. we cant afford them going on further flights having the same attitude to the crew and pax. the crew culture had been ard for ages, so therez no point changing it. it works well the way it is.
itz very hard for someone who is not in cabin crew to understand what is going on inside. u have to be there to know.
i had posted my email up here several pages back.. so if any of u wish to ask anything regarding the job, feel free to email me.. just that i might not be able to reply promptly due to my flights.
for the new crew who posted abt being apprehensive to go for his/her flight, why not email me and i'll give u some tips on how to survive..
i had wanted to fly only for a year.. but itz been more than 7 yrz now, and i'm still enjoying my flights.. the crew are generally nice and everyone strives to give their best on board..
while ppl might say a lot of negative things abt the airline, i think itz up to personal opinions. as far as we know, we had tried our best, and still trying to do better.
best of luck to all those concerned.
