Talking F-one's IT skills?? Survey says: BUMP-BOW!

Sorry Fangio,

but unless you do the web client work-around previously described... without iSteve's iPermission you can't save it iDirectly to your iCal on your iDevice.

With Google, you can upload the file direct to the (offline) calendar on any post 2.2 Vers (GB, HC, ICS or JB). How's that for a "critisize"??

Er, not true actually. The method described by nitpicker is correct and works perfectly although to be fair to the the detractors, it does take up to 14 seconds.

And another thing....

The 26th is on a Sunday this month, and if they put my pay in again on the Friday without an NTC telling me it'll be in there 2 days early, I'm really going to see red.
Come on fellas, sometimes you just have to admit that, albeit kicking and screaming, CX is being dragged into the 21st century, and every now and then this leads to an improvement.

Cr@pest roster ever!!!! All midnight two crew crap again.

If they think that I'm going to be flying it, they are dreaming!!!

Do they honestly think that a Sin through the night followed by a NRT through the night is acceptable!

...so you call in sick and pass it on to your mates on reserve. Nice.

Remember the feeling the next time YOU get called out on reserve.

Here's an idea...proffer them.

... Or maybe, Frogman voluntarily works a G day or two to get rid of those night flights. That way, he can screw his mates out of overtime and work them through the night in his place. Isn't that how it really works around here?
