At the end of the year I will get a performance bonus for the same hours I was already rewarded for from the sessional block hour pay. Double dipping 👍👍
You will not be struggling to feed your family here.
Well must be heavily inflated by the seasonal tour based pay. Year three salary should give you around 3600 pounds in your hand plus per diems if I calculated it correct? It's great that you can take home 6000 pounds in a month but what is interesting is what your base salary is. Who knows how much over time there will be in the future? Plus I presume you need to come in on your off days to get that type of money?
