Im really not a big fan striking. Its legitmised blackmail. The poor little things at BA get to throw a tantrum, and if the bosses dont give them what they want, the poor tourists, that have saved and waiting for years (in some instances) to go on holiday, get waste 3 days at home instead.

Oh yeah, and the BA staff have finally agreed to accept the swipecard system. What the hell was the strike about then? It was a complete waste of time. Still, I doubt anyone would use it much.... Because of the strike the company will probably be bankupt before long.

Tons of people use it, I still cant see why, unless your a skiver, how an electronic system affects you anymore than a paper based one. And there is the safety aspect...

What's England coming to.... With the firefighters, now BA, its begining to seem that period in the 70's when everyone striked, because there was an R in the month, or the wind was in the east, or it was a full moon the night before, etc.
