Yes. She is an AP, which means she’s responsible for serving the pilots/heating their meals so her comments r quite serious.

I thought she was L4 on that flight, so she should be a DP. In any case, how stupid can you be to send this to your entire class?!

Just filed formal complaint with FAA and EASA.

This is ridiculous. People like these shouldn’t be flying.

The problem is widespread.

she isn’t the only one bullying.

there were additional DP and AP making similar bullying comment. This including one pilot as well.

She was the one who went on stage during the last vote to go against the other leaders, and to ask the members to give her 10 more days. Hard to imagine she has that many allies in the company, but most are probably afraid of her.

it doesn’t matter, but I would translate it more as “pick on” as opposed to “bully.” Ie, like a teacher asking really hard questions to a specific student.

You should read what it’s said in the picture.

She and other DP/AP used number 80 which phonics means bullying in Chinese.

The union claims they contacted her, and she claims that someone else used her photo to make those comments.

I don't really buy it.

She’s a liar. Plain and simple.
I guess she also bullies junior colleagues frequently.

EVA has removed the FA (Kuo) from her duty on board as of 7/10 (strike ends 7/9 23:59). She is a DP on EVA.

She will be performing FA duty on ground, assisting ground duties or be contacted for hearings and other errands.

She claimed her phone was stolen or someone hacked her account. EVA has filed a police report on her behalf.

I am pretty sure DHS, EASA, and FAA will take this seriously .

To threaten flight crew is a serious offense. Hope her visas will be cancelled and she will be grounded for a long time.

Whether she did it out of spite or emotional outburst, she is a flight attendant that is responsible for everyone safety. If she can’t control her emotion, she is a danger to flying public.

While I don't believe this FA as well, but getting this to FAA and EASA could well cause more problems for EVA than the FA herself?

I am not sure if FAA or EASA will rescind her visa, more or so they may require EVA to not let this FA (or those FAs who strike in general) to serve flights on/to America/Europe, or if considered severe, even ban EVA from flying.

I understand the consequences. But public safety first. BR management has its hands tied because of Taiwanese government. The only way to force this issue to be settled once for all is to get other law enforcement agency involved.

Her visa issue will be dealt with by DHS. It’s flying public safety that is more important here.

Hats off to management throughout this ridiculous situation.
