I agree with Dropp. People would complain if it was 12 weeks, because that is inherently what pilots do.
I would like to think that we got 4 weeks because there is a good payrise in the offing. I doubt it, but here's hoping. Treat the bonus for what it is, a bonus. It is someone giving you money that you didnt have before. When the payrise comes along, that is when you can complain. I never got a bonus before I came here. Like most people it will pay the credit card bills off. I guess it is better than a poke in the eye.
I would also be interested to find out what pay rise would not produce a single complaint. 50% would still find someone who isnt happy. We wont be getting that, thats for sure. If I am honest, if we got 2% I could leave, but actually cant because am locked into here. So the muddling on is the best way for me, for now. If lots leave then it might mean they would have to look at things differently. Looking at the past posts on the Middle East are we really going to expect anything different. ??
