At the end of the day most of us have worked hard to pass licence exams etc and would like to be paid a decent basic salary without the need to do overtime.
I couldn't agree more. This discussion has been going on and on and on in the dark and dusty corridors at the IMechE, and still nothing is done. I despair!
