I have been in the same state. I don’t know what kind of work I like, only what I don’t like.
No matter how bad the flight attendant's job is, those who stay in the circle naturally have the motivation to stay. Excluding the irregular work and rest, I really didn't think there was any pitfall. I knew I was not talented and lazy, and I was content to be a teapot, pouring water and sweeping waste wood in the toilet. One day you don’t want to live this way of flying around, the world is like a new chess game, and the big deal is overturned, isn’t it?
Take our company as an example. After the training is completed, as long as the internship period (usually half a year) is passed, if there is a big international flight in GZ city for 90 hours a month, the minimum is 12,000, which is the least. For those of us who have been flying for two or three years, basically more than 15,000 per month. In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, the company will give you dormitory (three years), give you a shuttle bus, give you uniforms, and give you meals for the crew. It can be said that in the first two or three years of work, your income is your pocket money. Not to mention that there are five insurances and two funds that pay a very high proportion, and the grain and oil gift packages during the festivals and so on. It is the benefits of normal state-owned enterprises, which may be comparable to those in the system, but they are definitely far superior to private enterprises in most industries.
What career prospects are not promising, if you can, you don’t want to work well. At least as an ordinary college student who did not graduate from a prestigious university, I am very satisfied with my job and income. I also don’t think I can find a better-paying job after resigning, because I am not motivated.
Even during the current stage of the epidemic, there has been no news of layoffs among the three major domestic airlines, and even GH has additional subsidies. Although the salaries of our flight attendants who rely on international food have been greatly affected, the domestic routes have recovered seven or eight eighty-eight. The salaries of many flight attendants in the second and third tier bases that do not rely on international food have gradually recovered to more than 70%. Some companies have closed down and laid off employees, but they are still stable.
Of course, this job also has a lot of disadvantages, and I have to talk ugly before.
- First of all: Physically, Fei International will have to stay up late and suffer jet lag. Non-Fei International will have a variety of morning shifts and evening shifts in three stages and four stages, which is also very tiring. Think twice about poor sleep quality. Many people around me have sleep problems, but there are not many occupational diseases such as lumbar muscle strain that the public thinks. Unless it's flying too hard in a certain month and the body is a little tired, but basically it can be recovered after two or three days of rest. In this way, in the case of serious work, the flight attendant will be released for almost five years, and the flight attendant does not need to do too much physical work. Jimei people know it, but the flight attendant will be more tired.
Of course, the physical aspect also involves personal maintenance issues, whether you love to exercise, whether your diet is good, and so on. For example, the airline will prepare every meal for everyone with vegetables, fruits, meat, milk, eggs. The nutrition is very balanced, but many people do not eat it, and the stomach will be problematic over time.
- Secondly: the circle is narrow, the atmosphere is vain, and the focus is on enjoyment.
Many people have fallen into the luxury goods pit before crying poor online every day, and they are probably obsessed with white rich and beautiful designs. But if the desire to consume can be controlled, it is quite easy to save money. I have been flying for two or three years. I usually spend money at will. Fei International will go out and eat. The skin care products are also lamer and sk2, but I don’t chase luxury goods and bags. There are six people without much control over consumption. The number of deposits is up. So if you are saving money, flying for three or four years to save hundreds of thousands is not a problem. Many people in our company have bought houses in Huadu, and the older brothers and sisters who bought it early made a lot of the down payment by themselves.
But one downside is that the income ceiling is relatively low. It may be up to 20,000 yuan until the flight attendant becomes the chief officer. However, the flight attendant is less and it is not tired. Although the treatment and status of flight attendants are much different from those of a dozen years ago, I personally think that they will not be too bad in the future. The country is also an acceptable job, and even in some surveys, it is still a career that many students yearn for. So I think even if China becomes a developed country in the future, flight attendants will not be a bad job with a high probability, and we still have more than one billion people and such a large territory, and the market is huge. Don't worry about the keyboard guys on the Internet who look down on us spraying our waiters. Anyway, they won't be able to get on your plane, so they're just addicted.
- Finally: all the flight attendants hate the company system problems: severe punishment mechanism, the leader who trains people at every turn, and various inspections for nothing to do. I am also very annoyed by these things. When I first went to work, I couldn't stand it every day. After all, it was annoying for anyone to be managed as a primary school student. I can only enlighten myself: there is no easy social animal.
If you have the ability to find a better job, don’t come, don’t enter a flight attendant, I am not self-motivated, not to mention that the flight attendants are getting worse and worse now. The Civil Aviation Administration’s requirement to reduce flying hours means that income will also decrease. Can look forward to a salary increase or a side job.
