this is what happens

i heard from a few nwa agents in my city that the other day only 2 agents showed up for work and the others banged out sick. well i guess you get what you pay for when it comes to contract companies such as mesaba which is the company in abe. oh well

LOL! Yeah ! I heard at one station they didn't come to work on a holiday. $8? Who cares.

On the best day(s) these stations barely function....And most of that is due to the "regular" NWA employees that are part of the transition team (they suck for doing it BTW, but that's a thread for another day).

In my city, the crews that come through tell tale after tale of gross incompetence, and horrible service. Things like vendors being unable to perform rudimentary tasks like changing seats, issuing tickets, operating Jetways, dealing with diversions, etc.

Lack of training, low wages and high turnover will ensure that this continues. :down:

There are some positions that can be contracted out with little or no problems. However contracting out your frontline employees that are going to have upfront and direct contact with your customers is a bit silly.

just as they did with the mechanics. those mechanics are just as much frontline as the other agents cuz they are the ones who make dam sure the planes flew. since then nwa doesnt have anymore mechanics but like a poster said in another thread, the sad state of the airlines are in the dumps due BUSH and the OUTSOURCING :down:

robbed if mechanics are so front line why is Ken going through all the trouble to tell the public that we even exist?

 

[robbedagain]

actually ken doesnt even have to go thru any trouble at all. you opened your mouth right from day one. and nwa made it public that gthey dont care about the qualified AMFA mechanics whop struck. ALL NWA CARED ABOUT WAS CHEAP LABOR and they DID I THE WRONG WAY SCAB BOY
