What the company are suggesting is the carte blanche removal of allowances that would lead to them moving people around the U.K. at short notice to cover the gaps their planning and poor management has caused.
Back to the days of MilSAR when under resourcing was the name of the game and pieces (ie people) got moved around the chessboard willy nilly.
The rearcrew were constantly f***ed about as we didn't have enough of them and aircraft were robbed from the OCU to fill gaps on the front line - then senior people wondered why we weren't getting enough rear crew from the OCU!!!!!
Crap management is crap management whatever they wear to the office.
As I understand it the other major issue is the removal of the deputy posts - does that come under the heading of 'Just work harder' in management directives?
