I like the new patterns.
The bid book was really getting "same old same old". And I've been getting the same tired old flying all the time. All I can say is
you can please some of the people all of the time
all of the people some of the time
but not all of the people all of the time...
At least the system give us a lot more variety, especially the people up in BNE and down in MEL... There's alot of good slip time in certain ports too...
It looks to me like the company are going to be forking out alot more in allowances, as well as a sh*t load of overtime with some of the patterns CARMEN has given us in one of her nasty moods... Yes some of the patterns suck if you don't like certain places....
Something tells me this will end up costing THEM money. Another shortsighted beancounter strategy? Or is someone at QF getting a nice kickback from they people at CARMEN's software company?
