Hands up any male pilots out there who do anything like ride motorbikes, ski, sail, play rugby, drive round the M25 after a night flight, etc. etc.
Right, now if any of you should happen to break a leg/ collarbone, etc. whilst involved in any activity other than sitting in your armchair then I think your employer should refuse to pay you a single penny of sick pay. After all, it was entirely self inflicted - you chose to do the activity so you must now face the consequences. You knew the risks yet you still took them.
In fact, I think sex should be banned for all male pilots lest they should happen to create a child. Because its me, the taxpayer, who would have to pay for your wife's visits to her Doctor, hospital appointments, the actual birth, all those follow up visits to the GP, child allowance, etc. etc.
I don't want to pay so no one should have children. Ever.
