So what is casual?
So can someone enlighten us, what exactly is 'casual' at QF?
I've always had the impression it was life on 24 hour call, pay only for duties operated, and being on call, makes it impossible to do another job. No benefits, no leave, no nothing.
How often do casuals get called up? What kind of income do casuals average? Sounds like something for uni students who can skip a few classes when need be.
I'm lucky to be flying as a permanent with another airline, and about to become a CSM/Trainer with another. There's very little reason to give that up to become a casual if my shortlist phone call comes with a MAM transfer opportunity.
That's not what I offered my skills to QF for.
