Name and Shame

Do you think the people at VS who were involved in the price fixing should be named and shamed then sacked.

Thay have done very dirty business and it leaves a very bad taste in my mouth when I say I work for Virgin Atlantic.

[Scrooge]

A simple answer...yes

Why do you think that VS have not done it?

[Scrooge]

Because it would be bad PR and VS is all about putting a good spin on everything.

The powers that be found out that someone was doing something illegal, figured the best way to get out of it was to point the finger at BA, yell and scream at how bad BA had been and pray that nobody stopped to think for a moment that VS were just as responsible as BA, then pray that it would all fade away with the minimum amount of dirt being thrown VS's way.

would it not be better pr to make it public that those involved were no longer at vs and that we do not condone or will tollerate that type of behaviour

[RichardMannion]

I say yes, they should be properly named and shamed. BA had no issues in doing so, so VS should follow suit. But Scrooge has nailed the reasons why in his second resposne.

Very dirty I am very ashamed of VS and the fact that I work for them. I used to be proud

[RichardMannion]

I'm feeling feisty; I wonder if anything would be said if I wore a t-shirt with a suitably cutting remark about the price collusion on my next VS flight.

Now what to put?

Dave/Paul - any ideas?

Thanks,
Richard

EDIT: Creative mind is thinking now:

1. Bertie Smalls Fan Club
2. Do I phone Virgin or BA for the fuel surcharge?
3. VS - The Green Airline, Green 'Grass'.

Plea Bargaining on Fuel Surcharges - removing guilt since 2007

Whistle-blowing - bleaching red hands since 2007

It's not illegal if the other guy did it too

If it works in the playground it works in the air! Dob your mates in so teacher goes easy

No way BA/VS Collusion... oh wait...

Collusion - this time it's mutual

Collusion's bad - as any fuel kno

[RichardMannion]

VS regrets to inform that it doesn't do 'outings'

Hello is that BA? Can you tell me what VS's fuel surcharge is?

'At least Willie got rid of them'

[mcmbenjamin]

So VS has their own 'Dirty Tricks' hmmmm, BUT this time BA and VS...

[Decker]

Willie showed us his - Dickie won't

Apparently it's ok to see Willie's but not Dick's

[Scrooge]

US Brits stick together....HE DID IT

Nobody likes a rat

VS management subscribe to the witness protection program

It's only illegal if you don't get caught

Once a shady mechanic always a shady mechanic

Surcharge = Little red pillow right [?]

Interesting question VITB & one that has been asked before (anybody recall the J2000 seats!!!!) & i think you already know the answer.

Would imagine you aren't the only stff member feeling that way - do you feel a little betrayed?

Yes I do.
