You guys just have no idea of the broader picture. If we had the Agbami contract we'd be able to afford you overpaid whiners, but we don't, so live with it. You only come out here for 6 weeks and in most bases you're fed, so what are you getting CLA for anyway? Just to stop you whining so much is what. If you need to buy food, change money at the airport when you arrive - what do you expect - an ATM at every base? Whaddaya mean why can't you have the money in cash like before? You guys never listen to what you're told about the perfectly reasonable explanation we gave you about tax and business integrity. It's about time we started cracking the whip. Nobody's been kidnapped for a long time, ADA is still short of pilots who haven't left Bristow despite all the horse dung posted here by a bunch of malcontents. We have enough people and that's what shows the truth of the matter - most people are perfectly happy. We have a stack of applications from pilots in Third World countries who'd be glad to make as many greenbacks as we pay you. We have a whole heap of them already and our accident rate hasn't gone up, so stop whining about falling standards.

It's costing us a fortune to keep you guys in secure camps when the hijack threat is negligible, so we're cutting back on security consultants and having them all based here in Lagos where they're needed. The drivers and junior staff were just a drag on our resources which is why we sacked them and outsourced the work to local contractors. We're not a bleeding hearts charity and if they're on a worse deal now, that's their problem not ours. Unlike you, we're here on performance bonuses and we'll do whatever we have to and screw over anyone we need to increase our package - you'd do the same if you could, so quit moaning - losers
