Colonel, I appreciate your arguement that those that regularly do O/T are not making as much money during PIA. But really mate, you cannot rely on OT to pay bills. Especially when QF is constantly trying to reduce costs by abolishing it. When you have'nt had a pay increase in 2 and a half years, its easy for someone to rely on OT more and more without noticing it. And this is not right or fair. Where will these ppl be when OT dries up?
The only thing you can rely on is a fair basic pay. I know licensed guys earning below 70k, and thats with shift!!!
We are not asking the earth, just trying to honestly keep our heads above water.
