I am currently on the sick list..... I have been physically and
emotionally abused by this company.... I have had 4 reassignments
attempted in 5 weeks with two being successful... MY son has
been "neighbored" on two occassions because there was noone to take
him at the last minute and his dad was flying a trip... He is now
asking me when I will be back and if he will have to spend the night
out away from home....MY t/a was reassigned to overnight with less
than 8 behind the door and one leg return.. We got back yesterday
morning with the idea that we were finally going home as it was our
scheduled day off... We were notified by agent we were reassigned
again to sit over 5 hours and then go to Fresno and return the next
evening... I began sobbing uncontrollably and in front of passengers
stated we were being abused and I would be forced on the sick list
because I cannot leave my son again....The mod was notified by the
agent that a flight attendant was "falling apart" in front of
passengers. She put me on the phone to Abal and he asked me to come
to ops so the passengers would not see me.....when I got to the desk
there were 3 frantically assisting other F/a manning problems... He
looked up my record and asked what I want him to do... I told him I
am wiped out physically and mentally and I cannot leave my son again
not knowing when I can get back to him.... I am now on the sick list
and feel a breakdown is forthcoming...
What a crisis... ...
.... I am very tired, depressed and feel completely stripped of dignity and respect.... How sad!!! How could you allow this APFA????? We have hit rock bottom!!! We said it all along and here we are!!!!
