Wot's this then. Can you elaborate please for the benefit of your very curious Irish colleagues
.
They give you accomadation on night duties??. I can imagine that this is better than a 'manky old fold down bed' but that's pure luxury for us.
We have 4 in total for 23+ controllers each night. All those that dont fit on the 4 fold down beds end up sleeping on lie-lows in the shower room floors, dirty office floors that have had hundreds of people walking on them and even the floor of the jacks. I kid you not.
We have zero facilities for night staff to get their head down (major safety factor as pointed before) but then maybe thats because OFFICIALLY any head down time is denied.
The crazy thing is this-when we spent 40 million on our new building the original plans had night accom/quarters for the staff. Then some idiot noticed that in plans and decided to do away with it. As a result we spend our down time on nights on any office,shower or toilet floor that we can find. Add to that floors of corridors, storage rooms,filing rooms phtocopier rooms and you start to get the picture
Great way to treat your money-earning staff. The airport fire crew up the road dont have to do that.
Anyway well wear on the new digs and go on tell us about the butler staff rumour has it ye have!
