BA Cabin Crew make me SO ANGRY

I cannot believe what the BA cabin crew have gone and done by announcing a 12 day strike over Christmas & New Year and cannot believe that they could be so heartless and insensitive. Not only are they going to cause heartbreak to millions of families around the world, who either cannot travel anymore or will not see their loved ones for Christmas. But they will also cause worry and upset to thousands more whose jobs rely on British Airways sales. Hundreds of small cruise travel agencies and indeed cruise lines will have sold customers British Airways flights as part of a package, they have little or no chance of finding alternative flights now and will presumably have to refund customers. Companies will experience a huge loss of profit at a key time of year. Last year I had a number of friends who lost jobs following the collapse of XL airways and I fear the BA strike will have the same impact.
BA staff are being asked to work harder (staff numbers being cut on each flight) and will get a pay rise in return. This is happening everywhere – although most staff haven’t been lucky enough to get a pay rise.
I just hope that when the tuck into their turkey on Christmas day, they spare a thought for the people who face a very bleak New Year.
