An airline boss has been fired after posting photos of British Airways cabin crew online and labelling them "fat" and "unkempt".
LOT Polish Airlines' cabin crew operations director Katarzyna Richter has faced heavy criticism for secretly takings photos of the crew members on her flight from London Gatwick to Polandand then "cyberbullying" them on Facebook.
"Today, my attention was drawn to grooming and appearance of British Airways cabin crew members, unpolished shoes, holes in tights, too tight uniform, double chin, rotten and uneven teeth, messy hairstyle," Richter posted.
She then went on to claim that the British Airways workers were slack with their duties.
"By the way I am curious if you as a passenger judge cabin crew by the way they look?" she asked.
The airline boss' post caused outrage with the airline, especially since the photos were shared line without their permission.

"How dare this airline executive invite the public to assess the appearance of a rival carrier's workers," one British Airways (BA) worker told The Sun.
"The primary job of BA staff is to keep passengers safe. This woman should know more than anyone how to behave."
