Mr Buzzy - you are so right. I don't know of anyone who properly reads those bull$#!t SYD taxiway Notams. Too many, too convoluted, too hard, too little time. One day something important will be missed. No matter, blame the Captain.
Very True
You should hear the 'Safety' officers crap on about "useless pilots not reading NOTAMs". The place is driven purely for profit. That means minimum maintenence staff and as a result, constant pavement failures and patch up work. They are very quick to book some poor tug driver just trying to do his job on flat hourly rate or bollocks some metro pilot for taking the wrong turn in a sea of red unservicability lights at night. Wanabes...
I breifly worked there a few years ago and was asked by a manager (who is still there) "What is more important-safety or profit?"
"safety first-then profit" was my answer.
This was apparently wrong because he then spent the next twenty mins explaining how profit and business was far more important. This is how he runs his arm of airport operations.
