John appears in a three-minute safety video for Qantas that is shown before every take off, but employees are not fans.
According to the Australia Daily Telegraph (via The Hollywood Reporter), employees are writing on online forums that the video is "cringe worthy," "corny" and "tacky."
Flight attendants take issue with being called "the team" instead of cabin crew members.
"We feel it's demeaning to be called 'the team,' one employee reportedly told the Telegraph. "It makes us feel like we work at McDonald's."
"The whole thing seems to make the safety message seem trite," another added.
