Someone's telling porky pies. Maybe that's what you wish or dream you do Mr. Disappointed??
I don't know, I just find it weird that there is so much you have to get done (at least 20-30min worth) after you sign on at the computer and before you get on the bus to the aircraft. But the bus leaves 10min before the actual sign on time that we write in the Voyage Report.
My math must be flawed because it looks like we're on duty without it being counted for about 40min or so every time we go to work.
