Again the baseless arrogance of some tech crew rears it’s ugly head…I loved the one of Qrew room a few years ago when some drivers wanted to equate their pay to that of a neuro-surgeon…as I said unfounded conceit
The company is not some charity or travel agency to be used for your purposes and arranging a few trips away so you can be at home as much as you want..It is an airline and a business.
Tall poppy syndrome and envy you say…..Nothing could be further from the truth.
Firstly, who said I don’t earn more than you?
Secondly, I could not stand to sit on the flight deck as you do for hours on end with little to do other than bolster each others ego
When I said 9 to 5 ’s it was not meant literally, there is an enormous amount of people who work in an office or whatever at different times of the day that are awake when you are and that only get 16 days off or less in an 8 week period and would be absolutely stoked to get anywhere near 26 days off but then your tech crew.
The main point of my post was that while you are spitting the dummy over such a horrendous 10 day trip all employees within QF are heading towards a precipice with a momentum that is gaining and we have to look at the bigger picture. In 5 years time you will probably look at these patterns and wish they were still around.
If (when) Darth Dixon undercuts you guys again as he did with J* then you might want to try and understand the rest of the deal
To do this however requires a certain degree of astuteness and foresight but then you are tech crew so I’ll forget that approach and by the way, I think you would be surprised as to what I know about the S/O base in Singapore...
