Gate attendants who let visitors race through the gates are creating a dangerous situation. & I hope no one is hurt.
This is not an excuse....only stating the fact that these attendants start out a dollar more than FL minimum wage. According to most recent Indeed posting from CDD...its $13hr. for an evening 6p to midnight position. Like any customer service industry job, you deal with volume and more as*holes than you do an understanding and patient clientele. So most wont ask to be ‘reassigned....they’ll just quit! What they should do is have prospective gate attendants read threads like these on TOTV during orientation and see if they still want the gig!
