ATIS and Scarebus -legendary! I hope someone points RS in the direction of this thread so he can see how we feel outside of a pilot meeting. I had the misfortune of going permanent on 1st Nov 2004 with all the crap T&Cs that go with it and frankly there is no incentive for me to stay. As soon as I swap seats from the 330 to LHS 320 my quality of life is going to take a nose dive for the forseeable future. Whats the point? Get rid of the salary cap, bring back our lost T&Cs, spend some money on a rostering system that doesn't involve a tablet and scribe and I would stay.
Just out of ineterest you Captains that are thinking of jumping ship, where are you looking at? Presumably you have to be v unhappy to take a pay cut and demotion to FO just to get away? RS listening?????????
