Flight attendants typically aren’t paid during boarding time. Earlier this month, after a three-year contract campaign and a credible strike threat, flight attendants at American Airlines became the first to win boarding pay.
This is seriously insane to me. I start getting paid as soon as my ass hits my chair. And when I was working in an office, it was as soon as my foot went in the door.
I can’t imagine interacting with the public on behalf of a company without being paid for it. Wtf.
They weren’t being paid during the time they were working to usher and assist boarding passengers?
What the fuck.

You a freelancer/contractor now?
In office you weren’t salaried I suppose
I was a consultant for most of my career until recently where I switched to a salary employee.
Ah hope that’s a rewarding switch one way ($) and/or another
