Eureka
Considering all the posts about factoring and the ASRs from a handful of EK drivers, I would build the off days after a couple of flights rather than allow bids that opt for consecutive blocks of off days. Then there will be no fatigue related rubbish under the garb of safety. Thereafter we can expect threads/posts complaining that not enough time is being allowed for commuting or facilitating personal pursuits.
Isn't it time that you understand that the company has employed you to do a job, for which it pays and looks after you reasonably better than other carriers in the region and the world, and the employment given is not to facilitate your personal agendas. The sooner you accept this the better it will be for you all, for the company I am sure has no dearth of would be employees with far greater experience than most of you had at the time of joining.
