What's new

ghost riders

A push pull from Europe back to PHL is extremely common. MOST DO IT! What the F else are you doing? I'd rather keep busy and not watch the clock in the back galley...tick tock, tick tock. 4 more hours ethel, 3 more hours ethel. Just do what you asked in the service guidelines. Those same F/A's will come down HARD on anyone else in the company that doesn't do "their job". It drives em crazy. 🙄
 
I fully agree with you on this! How bout 8 1/2 hours to Paris with a push/pull dinner service? The crew then dissappeared for 6 hours. Literally. I really think a ghost rider program is long overdue.

sky high states: I would like to SEE a uniform compliance program restarted. I've seen Agents coming to work in FLIP FLOPS. And, I've seen some creative F/A's add embellishments to their uniform pieces-----I saw an F/A in PHL, who had sewn on, I'd say, twenty additional SILVER BUTTONS onto her winter coat. Or F/A's, who dont even wear the right UNIFORM pants OR belts!

Am I right?

Oh man the uniform thang... 🙄 Some folks idea of tasteful and stylish is scary. The chick on int'l that had what looked like the French scarf around her neck and all flowing over her chest with 100 bracelets on. My God woman.

I heard along with the "new" uniform comes a reinstated compliance procedure....similar to what we had in the past. It used to be called "Impressions of Excellence". I'm sure they will just reinstate that program with changes in the "new" uniform. So all those uniform renegades need to get that defiance out of their system between now and January. :lol:

Oh but the F/A wearing his old navy fleece jumpsuit top on CDG-PHL looked so professional!

And this surprises anyone?
 
I heard that this was talked about during those focus group meetings and most of the FA's were in favor of a program that keeps some standards in place. Ghost riders (as long as nobody gets in trouble) will really show how people are doing things well and not so well.
 
Oh are you referring to this belt as a FA uniform belt on a CLT flight?? Now thats classy!

How many times do I have to say, "Welcome to America West Airlines!" 🙄 🙄 We have always had check rides on the West with Inflight sups. Even when they non-rev, they think they can disicpline us for something done wrong. We are use to it. Bring it on! We had ghost riders right after 9-11, postive space mgmt who had a check sheet of things that were to be performed on certain flights. If things weren't specific to the worksheet, "by the book", were documented, and many fa's got wriiten up even though it was suppose to be non-disicplinary!! This was all good old retired Anthony Mule's doing! The program latter involved our Elite members, and had a worksheet to write up and send to the company, again, many fa's were written up too. The intimidation comes and goes, for now they have backed off a bit. Hopefully since the Mule is dead, things will never go back to the way they use to. Leave us alone, and let us do our jobs! It is a wonder why we have SO MANY paranoid Westie fa's, scared if they don't go by the book.

And if you are working a 5 hour flight from PHL-PHX, it is a 3 beverage flight. Cans, water and BOB serivce and another full cup service before landing. At least that is the way West does it. I think that is why we are called "Stepfords!" LOL
 
Heck why not have "Ghost Riders"?

Afterall we have "Ghost" Customer Service

we have "Ghost" on time arrival.

we have "Ghost" Baggage Claim

we have "Ghost" IT

Pretty soon we'll have "Ghost" Customers in the seats :angry:
Please Please be the the 1st "Ghost" Customer. Everyone is so over you!!

Mr. not too sharp,

You do not speak for me, or any number of others here. You seem happy wearing blinders. I do not always agree with PB but I do appreciate his comments, even so.

You, on the other hand, need to wipe the koolaide stains off your mouth. You cannot stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Quit, in other words.
 
Did everyone see the CBS posting that they had for GHOST RIDERS? They want to get flight attendants to do the job and perform check rides. Isnt that a management job? Should a fellow Flight attendant write up another flight attendant? AND, what does the COMPANY do with said, ghost rider reports? Do they dicipline on the WEST side? Anyone?
Is this intimidation coming EAST? Or is it productive?

COMMENTS????

These programs have been going on for YEARS on the East. They are for data collecting. Yes, the information obtained MAY get you called into your supervisor's office, but the actual rider is NOT the one disciplining you.

We need this program BAD!!!!!

We have gotten so far out of touch with what we are supposed to do that it needs to be done.

F/As aren't going to like it, but...........

For an example:

Where is it written that we changed the express services from a 9 hole tray to a beverage cart drapped with a blanket (to hide sodas on the 737-300) with Coke, Diet Coke, etc on top????????????????????

That is the TACKIEST thing I have ever ever seen.

I am not a company cheerleader by ANY stretch, but we need to start doing things the way they are supposed to be done.

AND wear our uniform the way it is SUPPOSED to be worn.

Isn't this what we get paid for in the first place???????

Try doing "your own thing" in a REAL company and they would fire your a$$es.

Why we as flight attendants think we have the right to do our own thing is beyond me!!!
 
I understand we're all on pay cuts and working harder but a 5 hour flight with one bev service with BOB and thats it?

Trav,

You brought up my next soap box point.......

We took these pay cuts YEARS ago. One has had PLENTY of time to find a new job if they knew they had to do X for Y amount of money and didn't like it.

I for one am so friggin tired of lazy a$$ flight attendants saying "They cut my pay, so I cut the service".......Get over it or move on!!!!!!!!!

Like I said in my prior post.... The company is paying me to do things the way THEY want them done and to wear my uniform the way THEY want it worn....PERIOD. It shouldn't be open for discussion.
