Instead, they’re better. There could be many reasons for that: positive attitude, workplace stability, a history of doing it right, Bavaria first (!)... Maybe there is a tradition of working well there for some time and then going onto a better paid job because people have heard about the tradition of good work in the FCL MUC.... One way or another, the bigger picture has to be right. Otherwise you are only left with minimum wage salaries, high rents and high costs, and then you have the FCT FRA situation as it is. No English spoken at an international airport?!?! Even the cleaners and Fraport baggage cart guys can get that far...
Currently in FCLA, very nice waitress, almost no English, ordered the Venison, it is the Oktoberfest Special, no comprendo…. i had to point to it on the Menu

Other Guy that is working here is very good but i had to show him where a beverage i wanted was located behind the Bar,’ im so sorry it is my first week’ , no problem, he will be good

There is a Lady doing the Lounge Survey….. i told Her….. everyone says the same She informs me, ….. change of caterer is not going well & MUC is so much better
