Pay no attention to camelhair. The guys a jerk
So let me get this right, as a long time FR pilot, I tell it like it is and this, to some wannabe who doesn't like what I'm saying, make me a jerk!
Stansdead is the only person talking any sense on this thread. It's the likes of all these wannabes, not even in FR, who think they are being well rewarded, that is screwing this profession.
All this rubbish, I earn this at FR vs that elsewhere. Yeah, but you don't pay for your rating elsewhere and you have a pension, sick pay, loss of licence etc etc etc. In your astonishing arrogance, do you all think you'll never get sick, never risk loosing your licence and never retire??
All told, the FR package is the lowest of a jet pilot in Western Europe. Sorry to rain on your parade boys. Anyway, you better get used to disappointment as it awaits you at every turn in ryanair.
Chalk and Cheese maybe, but why not accept that you should be aiming for better terms and conditions? Surely that has to be the aim doesn't it?
Nail on the head. That said, it's not chalk and cheese either. Fr affects all. If you're perpared to work for $hit in fr, all anyone else needs do is pitch slightly above that, $hit + 1 if you like. You're cutting your own throats and everyone elses.
Sits back to wait for Bongles "expert and experienced" riposte.
