Yet again companies are relying on instilling a little fear into employees to carry less and less of the stuff.
If they really cared they should call Flight Crew in for a refresher of the Fuel Policies and make it a day where you learn about the consequences etc etc.
That would be worth while, because some guys DO take the piss.
However fuel league tables are utterly utterly pointless.
What good is it? If you know your Company SOP's then you take the fuel required as you are the first one responsible if it all goes sour.
It's a responsibility a Captain shouldn't and doesn't take lightly and for the company to piss about with these worthless stats.... Very immature
