Yes it is. Apathy is rife, militancy scarce (as we are professionals), this means we tend to take much more before we 'bleat'. Problem is when this is exploited, it takes until the final straw either breaks the camel's back or it is too late.
I want these when the company can afford them.
You will never find ANY company that can afford staff payrises. Fact. It will take years and years of being told how tough the operating environment is, etc etc and the management will always have an excuse. Being the conservative bunch that pilots are, they will take this for years and years until they either are motivated enough to take action or they leave for pastures new.
Again, I wish you all well in Jet2.
