They're early this year

The annual British Airways event is about to take place yet again this, except it's happening a little earlier this year.





Normally, this annual event takes plave in the summer, the height of the holiday period and the busiest time for the UK's ariports, but the 2007 extravagansa is taking place in this winter.

I am, of course, reffering the the annual British Airways staff strike.

Every year it seems, BA staff decide that it'd be a good idea to walk away from whatever job they do. We've had check-in staff striking over various issues, baggage handlers refusing to, well, handle baggage and mass walkouts in protest at BA's decision to change food supplier.
This time, it's the cabin crew's turn to stand outside Heathrow with placards and banners.

You've got to question though, what is it about BA and employee relations? Why is it that these strikes are so commonplace? It can't be a co-incidence surely?

Enjoy your flight everybody.

(Oh, and perhaps I should disregard the BA price in my little experiment the other day?)
