I guess you prove the point entirely!
SAMOS is semi-automated met obs system and at the airports it's done by the ATSA's, there was an initial management proposal for ATCO's to vote whether to take on this job on night shifts for a 2% sweetner thus rendering 1/3 of the ATSA shifts not needed anymore.
It was a part of the deal but seems to have been removed as far as we were aware, probably due to PCS having a fit (an assumption on my part)
It also seems crazy that all ATCO's get to vote anyway seeing as it doesn't affect the majority, they'd just take home the extra 2%
White Hart is understandably hacked off!!!!
Silent Handover : interesting, roadshow hasn't come this far north yet, so we'll see!
