Thats the thing. What do you call a last minute roster change. That day? The day before? It never bothered me that much, but I saw and ended up having to deal with the aftermath of crewing`s roster changes on a daily bases with other crew who had change after change after change in 1 week, and they had been pushed to the point where they resigned the next day.
How about the 11.00 SBY and at 10.50 you are rung and told you are needed for a nightflight that night so you aren`t on SBY anymore?
I was never talking about the change of destination ie 4 sector EDI to 4 sector GLA. I`m talking about the early finish rostered to you say 14.00 and now you are finishing at 22.30 that type of change. The phone call on your day off, telling you that you aren`t reporting at 14.00 on your first day back but now 06.00 on your first day back, which then changes the whole weeks roster.
I know you got crew ringing in coz the cats puked up over the carpet, and the next doors dog had eaten their mothers buggie. So yes you do get stupid calls.
But bmi or BM was known for bad roster stablity.
Don`t think you do have me sussed

Is J(?) still on desks?
I loved the A3 size roster and pencil days myself. It was the phone call from crewing "Where are you?"
Never EMA!
