well said 6 chimes....
You'll spend your whole life working with min crew and be constantly training. Nightstops are few and far between and are only min rest ( 10 hrs in hotel) 12 hours if your really lucky. You'll be so knackered by the time you get to your hotel that you'll just go to bed anyway.
You'll have constant roster disruption, never have a standby at home again and if anything goes wrong on your flight you'll be hauled up and grilled by nazi like management who treat you like a confused child.
Have more than 12 days sick and you'll go into "AMP" which means your on your way out of the airline and can't go for promotion or longhaul ( which is mickey mouse anyway and not worth doing eg LAS with only a 40 min break - 11 hour duty).
Crewing dept will try and get away with making you work illegal rosters if they think you don't know the rules.
Speak out or get envolved with the union and the airline will go out of their way to ruin your life.
PLUS side well guess its like being in the trenches in WWI, the crew look after each other and are really good fun. you have to be otherwise you'd just cry.
run forest RUN!!!!!
