Cool

I also know this company very well! <img src="frown.gif" border="0">

DB6, "as an employer you can do a lot worse", really....where?

Everywhere I've worked since leaving that company have treated their instructors with much more respect, paid a lot more money and haven't been inclined to shaft instructors who leave for commercial jobs when they finally get there IR.

This latest idea of only counting flight/briefing time etc as being "work" is nonsense, if you are required by the company to turn up between the hours of 8 and whenever, you are at work for the whole time and should be paid as such!

What's next(?) logging each time you answer the phone until the call ends!

To clarify, this isn't sour grapes, I and my career survived my experiences with this company and I have some happy memories of my time there. None of them however invlove the management.
