A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Ready to strike??? Ready, you should have burned that fucking company down already

Flight attendants are covered by the Railway Labor Act. They can't actually strike. The President can forcibly prevent them from striking. There are serious penalties to be had for any kind of illegal strike.

So what's been going on instead is an "unorganized" definitely-not-a-job-action where some individual flight attendants do a bad job on service while still fulfilling all of their safety duties.
