作者簡介
關笑華(Becky Kwan)
前國泰空姐、國泰空中服務員工會前主席,曾控告國泰違約,導致國泰賠償3.5億,有「鐵娘子」、「國泰長毛」之稱。然而,在處理親情、愛情和財政方面卻天真爛漫,一度令人生焦頭爛額,是一個矛盾的混合體。
From 1970s disco-dolly, to 1980s trolley-dolly, to 1990s union leader on the front line of resistance against an airline management which was hurriedly transforming itself from benevolent paternalist to venal capitalist, as then inspired and legitimised by Margaret Thatcher and Deng Xiaoping: this is the story of Becky’s personal and professional challenges, inside and outside court, in the struggle for flight attendants’ terms, conditions and dignity, against the collaborative powers of a hubristic, lupine cadre of company directors and a hostile government.
