Being Cabin Crew | The Ugly Truth Part 8

WhatsApp Chat Post Flight

To kick off this chapter I want to share a WhatsApp conversation that I had with a friend who’s also a Flight Manager.

The conversation was used as part of my defence. Like all other evidence I submitted it made no difference.

I’ve made a few corrections to typing errors. I don’t usually send such long messages so was typing way too fast. I was also still extremely tired after what had been an incredibly challenging flight.

Unsurprisingly Bart lies about what actually took place. You can read what he says here.
