Sorry to hear about Manchester M.T.. Stessful as it is, getting the boot from fls is probably a good move in the long run. Having been through the 'FLS experience' myself recently I can honestly say that life does get better once you leave!
Also if the state of the FLS van that I used to drive was typical of the companies fleet,then it looks like the MT is as poorly funded and managed as the rest of the company. I used to be embarrased when I took the van home and recieved comments from my neighbours such as 'I hope you look after your aircraft better than your van!'.
So look on the bright side mt boys. A career at FLS should only be viewed in the short term anyway (as it usually is). Remember to choose your employer with a bit more care next time and you will do OK.
