BTW I am not the management in disguise but agree that the good old days of 3 day trips - 1 sector days etc etc are well gone as have such trips and perks in most other airlines too......
Life is cr@p everywhere, so that's alright then. The 'good old days have gone' : not for management they haven't, have you noticed a deterioration in their tems and conditions? Is their lifestyle significantly different to the one they signed up to? They are quite happy to accept the rewards when times are good but do they share the pain when times are bad? Think how much money the company would save if office staff were productive for 55 hours a week.
JET A1 I don't know how long you have been in GB, but at one point we all took a 10% pay cut and some a 50% paycut to help out and hang on to our jobs. The only group in the airline to do so. Are these the 'good old days' you are refering to? If so a return is easy to arrange and as you are not a whinger why not volunteer for a 50% pay cut and 900 hours to help out? The deterioration in your lifestyle and the effect on your familly is clearly acceptable to you, isn't it.
