Let's just have a look at that shall we...

Do QF,DJ,J* ring their crews at 1600 local to advise them of the next days flying because the roster is so unstable?

Do QF,DJ,J* crews land at an RPT port, chuck off the bags, check in the pax as there is no agent, load the bags, load the fuel, complete the load sheet then blast off again?

Do QF,DJ,J* crews stand under the wing holding a fuel sample trying not to let the heavy rain get into the cup?

When QF,DJ,J* staff resign do the HR people phone ahead to their next employer and torpedo them?

No, I didn't think so...
Sounds like another organisation, a little further north than Perth

Im sure the pilots at this palce would DREAM of a 1600L phone call...more like 1800L-2000L and if your lucky you get a 0600 wheels up!

Of get to the airport for that 0600 departure only to find you need to re-fuel the aircraft, load 300-400kg of frieght on-board and then once the flight plan is complete find out that your either 200kg over weight or you need to stop off en-route to re-fuel (to depart below MTOW) and when you tell the boss this you get your head ripped off or told (mind you infront of the new guys, "nah that plane can take off easily over-weight I have done it many times"...coming from the CP of the company and owner)

As for the torpedo act, this is this companies specialty, amongst other HR/pay roll things.....

Ahh well word got out and even the east coast knows about this outfit... funny...
