What does it mean when one says that they are 'grateful'.to being
employed as a flight attendant? Particularly SQ..??If u join JAL, Emirates or Qatar, you will realised that these airlines are rather strict in many areas.
SIA is more inclusive and sophisticated in it's treatment of cabin crew and tech crew.
If u compare operating pattern, SQ are better in most areas.
In the area of discipline, it has been an open-door policy for SQ.
Some of the other airlines, CC operate under a fear factor (Senior crew instruction is to be adhered to, just like in the Army, or else u will be reported).
The early days of SQ, CC operated in this environment. There were few IFM who were very unreasonable.
The anti-CC anonymous guy probably had a hard time from all these fear factor IFM. This is why he has nothing good to say about CC.
And this person is a guy and not a female.
I can narrow him down, haha.
Basically to answer your question about you are better off in SIA :- SQ is more inclusive and the CC are more sophisticated and the CC culture has come a long way and getting better year on year.
On Boh Tong blog, l can see changes in the comments (more sophisticated and refined in their contents commentators coming in). Good.
There is one left who is still putting down CC as a great job.
Boh Tong's blog could have gotten ever more popular through the years but unfortunately in the early days of your blogging, you have 3 anti CC trolls which created havoc in the comments section and chased my readers away from commenting.
This is why your blog did not progress much.
U should have ensured communities guidelines and respect in people's comment in the early days and the blog would be very successful by now.
I noticed in the early days when someone made a good comment, this anti-CC guy would come in and shoot them down and chase all the commenters away, resulting in hardly anyone coming in to comment after that.
All you get and still around are 3 anti CC guys making degrading comments about CC.
Apparently 2 anti guys have sobered down leaving one standing (General Custer's last stand, hehe).
Anyway being a cabin crew (job asides, don't talk about the working part, which is exhausting) truly offer you an awesome lifestyles, even the rich and famous cannot experience.
The CC environment provides you the best entertainment and enrichment in your life on planet Earth that no other job can come close.
Other job can get you higher remuneration but is unable to match the lifestyle.
So u choose: more money and better status job
OR - the CC lifestyles where u make all the young girls cry and enjoy the world with all its intriguing entertainments thrown in.
Cheers.

Dont blame BT la he was just trying to entertain us. Btw the article was well written and makes a lot of sense and that's the reason BT reposted the comment.
Try to be evenhanded and truthfull,even though it might hurt.Initially yes,and the bones heals and got stronger and unbreakable thereafter.They were many top ten in CC,include mad max,and more,include one who said he would make the crew crawl to serve.Sacrificing norms and decency,NZ,and other rights centric organisation would never allow,include single crewing on ul flight.Of course,Air Pyongyang got the best review,or dyes doing so,or Aeroflot,man size sully fss.Sitting cc cannot comments,unlike the internet era and covid.Damn if you do,damn if you dont, between the devil and the deep blue sea.CC provides all the incidents,saga and faux pax,so thanks for the materials,no apologise forthcoming,none accepted,and none asked,it only got festered online.The LS saga still watching the obit ,wrong doer passed,without being missed just like the Ukraine war.Life goes on,internet trolled and wikipedia updated.Well written does mean stronger argument,totally missplace .
Hi Boh Tong
Whats your take on recent news that a customer booked with SQ 6 months in advance before SQ last minute downgraded his seat from premium to normal economy?
Does SQ begin to be a poor beggar that resorts to lowly tactics to save money?
I am unable to comment as I believe SIA is looking into the matter.
Ya la, if l have to choose:- l would consider this technicality - u should not come into this world to live a standardised life day in and day out.
Any other job apparently result in a day in and day out same scene all the time.
Example: morning wake up followed by B/F and then off to work. Work till lunch and then work again after that till time to go home.
Reached home so happy to get to relax.
Next day same process till the weekend and get to chill on Sat and Sun and hate the Monday blues bec u have to go through the same standardised routine over and over again till the day u retire.
I notice that eh.. whatever work u do, this is what u do daily.
Even Elon Musk is trying to change his boring lifestyle by having love affairs.
Guess l will go for being a CC and make less money than being a doctor and go work in my clinic everyday till l die and experience nothing but standardised routine till l mati kudasai
Then at end of the year, try to go holidays to try to enrich your life, otherwise no opportunity but work and work.
Even if u make more money like Elon Musk, no time to spend it. So sad.
The world is a bad place, a terrible place to live but l don't want to die (the song, Reflection of my life) Strange ya. Working in a standardised format everyday but still don't want to die, hehe.
Well if this is the case, might as well be a CC and live life to the fullest. Hehe. I rest my case
Another senior cabin crew member at a major airline operating out of Heathrow said pressure on staff to redress the backlogs made things worse.
"Stress is leading to a high sickness rate and absenteeism. Stand-by cover has been reduced, which can lead to flight cancellations, even a couple of hours before a plane is due to depart.
"We're flying our socks off to the legal minimums and maximums, and so many of the staff are new that it's much harder. We have to do half their jobs and it's not what they were expecting, so they often just leave.
"Customers are so rude and that can be a lot to take when it's someone's first real
