Special 25 All that you say is true! However it's been true for the last 30 years.Howcome commercial divers have long since retired to a large slice of the home counties whilst all the Helicopter Pilots live in Ellon and are still getting up at 00 dark o clock? If you have a valuable skill how are the oil and helicopter companies managing to pay slave wage rates for all these years? I'm afraid I agree with you on many points ,but have no faith that you'll find sufficient depth of courage and support among the work force to get any improvement.In the end it'll be the same old story, those who would do something about it will eventually act on their own and move to better conditions for themselves elsewhere.
