Not so hard to work around. If you not happy find another employer. An experienced pilot's market at the moment, I would have thought.
Good pilots and good employers are always few and far between.
If you want good, secure money and a good employer, aim to be a bloody good pilot. For those who don't know what that means here are a few suggestions; trustworthy, punctual, safety conscious, friendly and helpful to fellow staff and clients, team players, look after their aircraft.
If your an operator and you can never get good pilots chances are you pay sh%$ and are an ar$^hol@ to work for. Having five pilots on standby just in case it rains or for that once in a century locust plague will not make for happy people. Try to appreciate that these people are here to help you make money, so look after them.
At the end of the day we are all on the same team trying to win the same game.
