Seems when you cut the pay, increase the workload, reduce the benefits you get a generally lower class of employee and since the job is not that good anymore, not a real career, more will ignore the rules. Was always my experiance that 90% of the carriers were very tough on their staff traveling-really made them follow lots and lots of rules and since it was a good job most listened. Also you now have the ""I AM GOD " F/A attitude today. Theyre beating on everyone else and I suspect they are really reporting anystaff that even dares ASK for a drink. IMHO Dennis
