I've said all along that the package here needs to improve, and I have said whether that means we all go down the direct hire road or stay with SERCO is yet to be seen, but either way things are improving.
My post wasn't about attacking the man, but telling those that have left, to stop sniping from afar. Give it a couple of weeks, and you won't know what is going on here, but if you are like the rest of those that have long gone, but are still bitter and twisted enough to give a **** (PMS, Tweety etc etc.), you will continue to heap crap on everyone still here, even though it has nothing to do with you anymore. You have made sure, along with the above mentioned names, that the Gulf is somewhere you can never work again, so again as I said why continue pissing on our parade. We may not be exactly on easy street right now, but those still here are trying to make the best of it.
