Re: Warning: Emirates Pilots Are Fatigued
So let me get this right, The salary is so far below market rate it is shameful, contracts are being abused, Safety is compromised through high fatigue levels and under staffed/funded training dept. First Officer's carreers stagnated through insensitive policy making and DEC's. Line pilots reaching max Flight Duty time and earning less than the coveted DEC's.
Response from pilot workforce.
Idiots still agree to take up and continu in training positions. My God guys! Trainers are the guardians of safety in an airline have the professionalism to resign until this bun fight is sorted out. You owe it to your line collegues. Without you the company are forced to negotiate.
Line Captains flying on days off. Those that do are weak moneygrabbing lillylivers who do not deserve the rank of Captain. Have the cajonas that you rank represents and learn to piss in the long grass like the big dogs. Only then will things improve.
FO's your @bond@ cannot be enforced since the very spirit of your contract with EK has been compromised by frequent adjustments to COS. Do yourself a favour and resign. There are loads of jobs out there you dont have to take this crap. You are professionals show some self respect and vote. Only then will things change.
As long as flights are crewed you are justifying managements cost cutting policies and inviting even less respect.
Working on days off under these circumstances is indefensible those that do are contemptable and should be treated as such.
