Thai Vietjet just opened jobs for new young pilots who have a CPL already. If selected they have to pay 2.8 million to get the rating and are paid 18.000 baht a month. Converting from A330 to A 320 will cost the pilot 380.000 baht. NOw you know how these people get rich. Ask the one from Ryan Air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW...if you are in business you accept the risks of being in business and losses are one of them. When you are a consumer, you do not expect to pay for goods and services and then be stiffed.

Popular Post DaLa Posted July 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2021 I run a company out here in LoS with my wife. The 2 of us have complete and full control and make numerous decisions on a daily basis. On rare occasions a ‘strong’ word needs to be inserted to gain each others attention. Many years ago I was employed in an office of 5 women and myself, sole male. The language was one continuous expletive and one particular woman’s language had been notorious within the company for the previous 20 years. We had a re-shuffle and I was made her manager and told under no uncertain terms that her language was unacceptable. After all that time it suddenly became a major issue and I was then tasked with resolving her ‘problem’. Having been employed in the Steel and Construction industry I was willing to accept that some people communicate in that way. Alas, along with no drinking during the day or approaching Dorothy in accounts with ‘sweetheart can you get me lasts months ledger out’ most companies have now fallen under the spell of the (mainly female) ‘Human Resources’. My company doesn’t have a HR department and I have a business partner that’s drama free; unless it warrants it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big difference. I never flew with them as I don't like their attitude. You had a choice, I did not close the country. So we are in the same boat. The reason is exactly the same. NO, I think they should pay you back. and I would not let it go as well. I believe in honest business, that's why I am still poor ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woman want equity until or unless the equity offends them. A true feminist would not be happy until the workplace death rates of females is 50/50 and not 99/1. That won't be happening any time soon. Some directs the “f bomb” towards me and tells me to “shut up”, yes there would be an issue. Oh, and always good to see a man (and I am assuming from the nature of your post you are such) telling women what a true feminist should be… Edited July 29, 2021 by Bluespunk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Almer Posted July 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2021 In the past i have had the pleasure to work at management level with women, it seems i was fortunate they were quick, precise in there answers and were normally spot on with there thoughts. The thought of having to watch my P's and Q's when in there company could of had a detrimental effect on there careers, sorry but that is a fact, in a high pressure meeting they have to forget the cotton wool approach, i know you will all tell me you cant work that way today, but the ladies i employed were well paid respected and were with us for many years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtls2005 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 An airline is basically in the customer service business. Yes, there is more to it behind the scenes, but the 1960's glamour surrounding air travel is gone. Now it's the same as bus or train service. If you treat your employees like trash, then that filters down to how your customers get treated. This tossapon chap has FAILED EPICALLY and in full public view. He lacks any understanding of decent human interaction, and deserves a public dressing down. With a leader like this his company is doomed to fail. He could change - cough, sputter - but not sure he's up to the task? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted July 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2021 People are so overly sensitive these days. A boss should have the right to tell a rambling subordinate to shut up. No doubt the fact that he told a woman, and not a man, is what caused this to go viral. In industrial history how many years has it been unacceptable to for someone in his position to tell someone who is rambling on and on, to shut up? Three years? Five years? Weak, PC culture.

Popular Post Liverpool Lou Posted July 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) "Bijleveld was heavily criticised on social media" Interesting that the woman involved hasn't complained! She clearly wasn't offended or upset, she carried on and was smiling and not uncomfortable. It's the interfering social media clowns who cause the problems that weren't there before they hit their keyboards.

Get over yourselves. Working in a team of males (many years ago) we spoke however we liked and didn't mince words. Then gradually one or two females joined our team, so language had to be "modified". But our old WW2 vintage boss would walk into the room and tell the males, one by one, that they could F off, and the ladies he'd say...."Jane, you can go home". All fully accepted...at that time. Maybe not now.☺ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Too little and too late. Fernandez was sniggering on the Zoom call at Tossaporn's bullying and vulgar behaviour and has only apologised because the clip was leaked and went viral. Tossaporn is a complete tosser anyway and should be forced to resign. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
