Airports are amazing mini-cities wh

Airports are amazing mini-cities where there are hundreds of different jobs you can do. We spoke to three people who do very different things.

Sarah May, 34, terminal duty manager

‘I started on the information desk and I did that for two years. Most of the time people were friendly, but occasionally I had to deal with some difficult questions and some very angry people. Last year, I became a terminal duty manager. Now I deal with all kinds of things, including passenger complaints, visits by the rich and famous, heating failures, cleaning contracts, and health issues. In fact, I spend a lot of time walking around and talking to people on my mobile.’

John Hammond, 23, baggage handler

‘Doing this job means I’m very fit, because I have to carry heavy bags and suitcases and put them onto the baggage trucks. The best thing about my job is the people I work with. We have a lot of fun at work. The worst thing is the shift work. I hate working at night and very early in the morning. I don’t think I’m going to do this job for ever, but I’ll probably look for something else in the airport because I think it’s a really exciting place to work.’

Tessa Reed, 28, airport engineer

‘I studied engineering at university and worked in an office for a few years. I was quite bored, so when I saw an advert for an engineer at Heathrow airport, I decided to apply. There are all kinds of things to deal with here – ventilation, heating, escalators, lifts – my job can be very busy sometimes. So many things can go wrong! I’m usually very tired when I get home, but I enjoy doing different things each day

Os aeroportos son sorprendentes mini cidades onde hai centos de traballos diferentes que pode facer. Falamos con tres persoas que fan cousas moi diferentes.

Sarah Maio, 34, terminal de deber director

"1 iniciados no mostrador de información e 1 fixo por dous anos. A maioría das veces a xente eran amigables, mais ocasionalmente 1 tivo que lidar con algunhas cuestións difíciles e algunhas persoas moi irritadas. O ano pasado, 1 tornouse un deber director terminal. Agora 1 xestionar todo tipo de cousas, incluíndo reclamacións dos pasaxeiros, as visitas dos ricos e famosos, fallos de calefacción, contratos de limpeza, e cuestións de saúde. De feito, unha gastar moito tempo camiñando e falando coa xente no meu teléfono móbil. "

John Hammond, 23, bagageiro

'facendo este traballo supón 1'm moi oportuno, porque un ten que cargar pesados bolsas e maletas e poñer-los nos camións de equipaxe. 1 A mellor cousa sobre o meu traballo é o pobo traballar. Temos unha morea de diversión no traballo. A peor cousa é o traballo por quendas. 1 odio traballar pola noite e moi no inicio da mañá. 1 non creo 1'm vai facer este traballo para sempre, pero 1'll probablemente buscar algo máis no aeroporto porque 1 creo que é un lugar realmente emocionante para traballar. "

Tessa Reed, 28, enxeñeiro de aeroporto

'1 estudou enxeñaría na universidade e traballou nunha oficina durante uns anos. 1 foi bastante aburrido, por iso, cando un viu un anuncio para un enxeñeiro no aeroporto de Heathrow, 1 decidiu aplicar. Hai todo tipo de cousas para tratar aquí - Ventilación, Calefacción, escaleiras mecánicas, ascensores - o meu traballo pode ser moi ocupado por veces. Entón, moitas cousas poden dar mal! 1'm xeralmente moi cansa cando un chegar a casa, pero gústalle facer cousas diferentes cada día 1
