Often finish at 2300, two days off and back at 0530.
Complies with POR and more than likely approved by the majority of your peers.

Add overtime and hours have to be hacked off here and there to keep it legal - which by the way is 80.5 because some bean counter decided this rounds down to 80.

Don't work overtime This doesn't even have to be seen as a 'political' statement or 'industrial action'. Just don't work overtime.

Most of my shifts are 8.5 hours. Close to 50% of my shifts are consecutive after a 10 hour break.
More than likely approved by the majority of your peers in a FA?


This is definitely the worst roster I have ever worked in my 10+ years here.
Hear hear!

I am tired and cranky much of the time.
Go and have a massage on your day off and don't work overtime.

And this is with the 'protection' of POR.
If we lose POR and move to FAID based rosters, my decision on taking up an offer overseas will be easy
You seem to be saying that POR is a crock of sh!t (I agree) but on the other hand you are saying if we lose it in the next EBA you'll leave? So what is it?

Do yourself a favour, go o/s don't just threaten to. DO IT!
