up north of the border, we maybe don,t have the same options as those down south.
for example in the lifting world where i work , there are only 2 operators. A guy i know, left one of these operators recently to "go freelance" with the idea he would work for whichever operator was busiest at the time. He decided £300 a day would be his rate, and wouldn,t get out of bed for less.In the couple of months since he left ,i dont think he,s flown more 20hrs, ie 3or4days !
