AIR CANADA STRIKE

 AIR CANADA STRIKES continue for their compensation in unpaid work. Their complaints: WAGES below POVERTY LEVEL.

Huh? I don't know about that. I first thought they are one of the highest paid for their service.

According to the news that we heard from News Network: Flight Attendants are paid 87,000/per year. I don't know how much taxes they have to pay though. And most of them had free board and lodging, paid hotel accommodation at the arrival country. Shopping is probably not paid and not free. 

Flight attendant is the kind of work that you always have to be inside the plane attending to airline passengers, keeping passengers safe, comfortable in the long hour flight from departure to arrival, serving meals, serving drinks, selling duty free products, cleaning toilets, pacify passengers to keep calm, assist and calm down passengers if certain issue occur. 

What could be extra work: During Emergency perhaps, when suddenly a pregnant woman delivers a baby inside the plane. An alcoholic passenger went berserk and flight attendant had to do extra work of pacifying the issue. Cleaning the toilets maybe that's extra work but they have to do that anyway because there are at least 200 to 300 passengers and there are only 6 washrooms. 

ALL WORKERS IN CANADA ARE PAID BY THE HOUR.

There are a lot of things that you can do in ONE HOUR. 

AIR CANADA is the best in the world, service wise. Sadly their strike must be heard just to settle what those "unpaid works."
