Well, itīs clear that management do
not want us to stay and have a career at EZY. There are a lot of pilots with different contracts within EZY and the only thing those contracts have in common is deteriorating T & Cīs.
With each new load of pilots management takes a little bit of joy out of the job and squeezes a bit more life out itīs īassetsī as everything (including some stupid SOPīs like flying around with minimum blockfuel) are geared for maximum stress/fatigue and minimum job satisfaction!
A lot of new joiners (like Norman) in LGW and SXF (on the A319) clearly have
no idea of the average easyJet lifestyle as they currently enjoy extremely relaxed (and for EZY atypical) schedules. Sure, as I wrote before, you will be home every night: KNACKERED! Please do NOT assume that the A319 schedules are the EZY standard, go and talk to some B737 pilots!
Iīve been with EZY for over one year now and in this time Iīve clearly experienced; an increase in my blood pressure, sleeping problems and digestion problems. All (in the opinion of my MD) resulting from a screwed up bioclock which has been virtually destroyed by one year of EZY scheduling of 6 and 3. Iīve been flying for quite a few years, but I never experienced the health issues mentioned above with other companies.
I see a LOT of advantages in 5-2-5-4 but itīs obvious that management does not want us to have a reasonable schedule with a reasonable lifestyle.
At the rate this is going I will take my loss at some point and quit. EZY wonīt care, as long as I give them enough notice to train the next TRSS victim.
