TruckR, your post should be made a sticky.
it should also be ringing alarm bells in your ‘survival mode’ of your thinking.
You are too close to the problem to see the solution even though you see the symptoms.
The company won’t change quickly enough even if they wanted, to stop your health deteriorating leaving you as an empty husk of a man unable to function beyond sitting on a chair needing silence unable to cope with a family life.
A person just can’t keep being abused in this way and not pay the price. Sleep deprivation is used as a form of torture for a good reason - it works and breaks the person completely down.
If you can still fill out a form, hold a conversation, make love to your wife, play with your kids, socialise with friends, enjoy a night out then there is still time. Get out asap. Before Christmas. I’m serious.
Forget seniority, your work colleagues, flying the jet, nice car and so on. Get out whilst you can still function as a human. It just isn’t worth staying in that job. Ask me how I know this.
I don’t know you and I have no reason to think you will get out, but I felt I had to say something in response to your post. There is a great world outside aviation but you need to be able to function to enjoy it.
I feel for you brother.
