Wheels down, what is your point in starting this thread? It reminds me of a CX mate who has been telling me “how it is” and “you have to realise that” for the last 25 years, all from the discomfort of Honkers. His kids can speak 5 languages but watching them try to climb with a tree is a hoot, they can’t find the electronic interface.
The next time any business that is privately owned throws buckets of cash at staff in a pandemic such as this, I’ll be the first to congratulate them. I must say that the Aust version of looking after the punters leaves the Jacinda Ardern model for dead. If you want to wind Australian pilots up, pull the other leg.
