Not me for sure,
I answered a recent ad for engineers at Monarch base maint, Pensionable salary was 22500GBP, + shift + license/approval pay which took total package to around 28000.
VS offered around 30k. Our managers get car + petrol, but no cash alternative. I also don't get shift or overtime allowance although I work it more often than not. FCL/JMC started at 31k + 4k shift. I guess some are recognising the fact that experienced engineers are getting harder to find and are starting to raise the stakes a bit. However until we have strong bodies to support us we will always get the "if you don't like it.....there's plenty of people out there etc.." Which there isn't out there, we will always be looked on as the necessary evil and the fact that anyone can do it mentality from the senior (probably ex ramp/hangar floor engineers) managers and bean counters who dictate what we will or won't get.
