Assuming the aforeprinted letter is the attempt of some
abinitio F/O, please allow me to drive the wooden stake squarely through the heart of the writer.
My colleagues and I are now falling asleep regularly on days four and five. What will happen when both fall asleep at the same time?
It would appear to me, that you - and your colleagues (would you care to provide their names) - might, more than likely, be suffering from a sleep disorder (sleep apnaemia), which will result in the (temporary) cancellation of their licence(s) pending further testing, as falling asleep "regularly" is one of the symptoms of this disorder.
Sickness and fatigue levels have increased because of the new roster
The same rostered hours were trialled over a cross section of employees, in different companies, and with no adverse effects being reported.
Please provide the names and the dates on which the sicknesses and fatigue levels were reportedly affected by the rostering, to allow the company to act accordingly in correcting the perceived problem areas.
we will be too tired to enjoy them and will instead use them to catch up on lost sleep.
Sleep disorders are common in the overall public workforce, but are undesirable in shift workers, and moreso especially aircrew, who hold serious public responsibilities whilst on duty.
It would be remiss of EZYJET to overlook such individual reported cases, without acting upon them.
We therefore look forward to you acting responsibly for the publics' sake, by advising us at your earliest possible opportunity, of your ability to safely conduct further flights, and of the names of any pilots you have been led to believe might not meet a minimum safety standard to which this company legally operates.
Etc, etc, etc.
