Thumbs down

Having sat on the fence for a while now it's time to get off. It's not the tents or the runway that i think is the problem (after a long night/day trip and being woken at O'christ 00 by jets taking off) It is the support we get from our Seniors/supervisors. (Non crew) They seem afraid to make a decision for the benifit of all. We have crews who don't know what they are doing from one minute to the next because of it. Spend some money on the guys and think about their needs and not on G+T parties (for those in the UK) take in the big picture. Life may get better in the long term. I have no grief with living in a tent. The situation warrants it. But, explain why movers are in hotels not far away while Operational crews are in tents and you may see the point of the argument. Positive leadership is required. It appears that the job is being done despite the leadership not because of it.
