With regards to manpower issues up here at ISK 14 out of 18 fairies on one shift have PVR'd in the last month!!
Out of 83 supposed bodies avaliable to our shift this week 24 were at work as the rest are either in the gulf, coming back from the gulf or getting trained to go to the gulf, and only 4 were on leave.
Shift was:
1 x FS
1 x C/T rects contoller
1 x SAC line controller (no JNCO's to spare for this job)
3 x AGEs (out of 7)
4 x riggers (1 SNCO and 3 SACs) (out of 20)
2 x sootie SACs (out of 10)
3 x leckies (2 Cpls and 1 x-dressed fairy) (out of 10)
4 Plumbers (out of 15)
5 x faries (out of 18)
And this is before all the redundances and PVRs bite!!!!
The meltdown has begun gentlemen make no mistake about that and I despair for the future. Will no-one sit up and take note??!
Unfortunately it seems not until there are a few more expensive smoking holes in the ground and a few less Daddies buying Christmas presents for their kids.
