Ok Guys, time for a truce, we are all under pressure here and tempers flare. I find PPRUNE helps me to vent my feelings and its really harmless fun. Keep it light and keep is snappy.
Boeing Belly, in relation to your question, I was not dismissed but refused to reapply for my job on less pay and poor conditions. I was not prepared to risk my entitlements on AN MK2. Many other Pilots made the same decision. I heard that one is off to Singapore with a payout of $300,000 (at least he will get the SEESA part of it)
Cheers
