Apologizing for things you didn’t cause…..just makes you a target for the frustration that you didn’t cause. Having said that…..the mindset of “I did my job, I’ll keep the temp down and sit on my hands” is pretty poor from a professional standpoint. We aren’t JUST plane-flying chimps…..there IS a customer service aspect to what we do. Again…..just my opinion.
One thing I do agree with….is that we aren’t airport managers.[/QUOTE
Someone need to sit in on another PPD class 😂😂
At this point the secret is out, if a pax buys a Ticket that goes to and/or connects in Newark, well that's on them.
It's like going to a pro sporting event and complaining about the price of beer being more than $5 a pint.
