Stan,
YOU haven't worked for easy in recent times, and thus are not qualified to comment on how thing are now. You obviously harbour a lot of resentment from your time there, and so did the right thing leaving. I wonder, though, how you think you are able to tell us who work there now what OUR jobs are like? As you said, you were there in the early days, and were thus part of one of the fastest expansions in airline history. Hardly suprising there were disruptions!!
Whilst still expanding, the pace has slowed allowing rostering/crewing some breathing space. I assert as I have elsewhere that working for easy (B737 LPL. Admittedly one of the better basings) has given me the most stable, predictable work patterns I've experienced.
As to the Delayed Days Off, no I'm not in love with the idea, BUT we are currently able to br ROSTERED past mid-night twelve times a year as flexi-days. Under the new regime our days off will be scheduled to BE days off every time. It means POSSIBLY working into a day off five times a year, rather than being SCHEDULED into a day off twelve times a year.
Not so bad when you think about it, rather than just spouting vitriol every time the Orenge name is raised.
