Hi flyers,

Let's get back to rational track. The management appears as so generous to tell the crews that the 20 min perf pledge is onlt a guideline for organizational performance. You guys, the flyers should have the professionalism to decide on how to manage the task withour compromising flight safety. Well, this is so nice to sound out.

Sadly, the reality turns out to be another side of the coin. (or the coin is actually twin faced!) Some of us may have such experience that you were late on scene by just 2 mins due whatever reasons: wx, ATC, tech problem when start up.... to name a few. You supervisor then stabbed your axx with some words. You are not properly penalized (on record) but properly debriefed later then.

Have you also ever been asked to attend meetings after the C shift (overnight shift) and then come back on the same night for another C? Have the supervisors ever thought about an appropriate date (not to fall on the personal time of crews) before calling for a meeting?

The management culture is sick but sadly they don't see the problems. Only our flyers know, "the epidemic is around!" Just do it la, comrades
